regmap: Drop check whether a register is readable in regcache_read
One of the reasons for using a cache is to have a software shadow of a register which is writable but not readable. This allows us to do a read-modify-write operation on such a register. Currently regcache checks whether a register is readable when performing a cached read and returns an error if it is not. Drop this check, since it will prevent us from using the cache for registers where read-back is not possible.
