hwmon: (max1619) Convert to use regmap
Use regmap for local caching, to hide register read/write address differences, and for multi-byte operations. With this change, the driver specific lock is no longer necessary. While at it, check errors seen when initializing the chip and bail out if chip initialization fails. Reviewed-by: Tzung-Bi Shih <tzungbi@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net>
