I guess you meant dm_i2c_reg_read.

Just keeping the consistency with write and read. ret stores the return
value and any case it is not added just for read so not a redundancy.

val is u8 and that is used with write as well hence i used the above.

I checked the data manual entirely. No SPI support in the case of lp873x.

So I2C is the way to access.

Hence instead of multiple indirections:

pmic_reg_read--> pmic_read --> ops->read --> foo_read --> i2c_read

I have used the i2c read as it is the only means in case of this PMIC>
I am afraid i am yet to find a public document for this but i confirm 
there is no SPI involved and I2C is the way.

Hope this justifies why i used i2c directly here.
