regmap: Allow drivers to reinitialise the register cache at runtime
Sometimes the register map information may change in ways that drivers can discover at runtime. For example, new revisions of a device may add new registers. Support runtime discovery by drivers by allowing the register cache to be reinitialised with a new function regmap_reinit_cache() which discards the existing cache and creates a new one.
