Convert any qca8k set/clear/pool to regmap helper and add missing config to regmap_config struct. Read/write/rmw operation are reworked to use the regmap helper internally to keep the delta of this patch low. These additional function will then be dropped when the code split will be proposed. Ipq40xx SoC have the internal switch based on the qca8k regmap but use mmio for read/write/rmw operation instead of mdio. In preparation for the support of this internal switch, convert the driver to regmap API to later split the driver to common and specific code. The overhead introduced by the use of regamp API is marginal as the internal mdio will bypass it by using its direct access and regmap will be used only by configuration functions or fdb access.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
