As I mentioned in an earlier post,
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/7/418

The 61/62 device type has been defined by the device tree in this case, and
that definition is used to set the register map. With the regmap defined,
access to the registers is then possible.

It is not possible to detect the device type automatically in this case because
it suggests a predefined regmap.

This is the reason I define the chip type (DA9061 or DA9062) in the device
tree and then assign the correct regmap first before accessing any registers.

The variant ID does contain the information about whether it is a 61 or 62, but
in order to read the register the regmap definition needs to be defined
first.
