You mean to ask whether there's any problem if the common qca8k_fdb_read() calls the specific qca8k_bulk_read as opposed to regmap_bulk_read()?
Well, no, considering that you don't yet support the switch with the MMIO regmap, the common code is still "common" for the single switch that the driver supports. You should be able to continue making progress with qca8k_bulk_read() being called from common code (as long as you leave a TODO comment or something, that it doesn't really belong there).
