Subject: [PATCH] regmap: maple: Clear async flag when doing a maple tree cache sync

The normal regcache_sync function sets the async flag on the register
map. The maple tree sync code uses a temporary buffer, which is freed
after the register is written, however, as the async flag is set the
buffer might not be used until after it is freed. Fix this by clearing
the async flag in the maple tree sync function.

It would be better to push this down into the rbtree code which is what
really wants this.
