Ok, I'm confused.  Granted, all of this regcache stuff was added after I 
stopped working on this driver, so I'm out of the loop.  But it appears 
that the regcache cannot properly handle an uninitialized cache.  I 
would expect it to know to perform hard reads of any registers that are 
uninitialized.

If the regcache wants to have an initialized cache, then it should 
automatically perform reads an all non-volatile, non-precious registers 
at initialization.
