Refactor the code to prepare it for supporting BWMON v5 which comes with different register layout by: 1. Adding use of MMIO regmap and regmap fields which allows to keep one code logic with different register maps. 2. The "clear" type registers do not allow reading, therefore regmap requires using cache with default values. 3. regmap has an effect of introducing barriers after each readl/writel, which should negligible effect as only few writes were relaxed. 4. Additionally usage of regmap fields removes need of shifting the register values. 5. Add "V4" prefix to names of all defines with register addresses (so BWMON_V4_xxx) to differentiate it from V5. The actual register values are shared so keep their naming. 6. While changing the defines, pad register addresses to three digits for readability.

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.
