Add a regmap config and a probe function to support for I3C based
communication to SPD5118 devices.

On an I3C bus, SPD5118 are enumerated via SETAASA and always require an
ACPI or device tree entry. The device matching is hence through the OF
match tables only and do not need an I3C class match table. The device
identity is verified in the type registers before proceeding to the
common probe function.

Guenter, I guess you can actually take 11/13 and 12/13 for 7.1 if you
prefer as they don't seem to actually have any dependency on the
previous patches. The worst that can happen is that the driver won't be
probed because the I3C subsystem will not enumerate the device.


Thanks, but Linus released 7.0 today, and the 7.1 commit window is open,
so it is a bit late for adding content to it.

I can queue the patches for 7.2 after the commit window closes.
