On my platform, it use palmas-regulator.c, ldo6 for this lm90 power
rail. I checked this driver, it will handle ramp_delay except LDOx.
Since I'm not familiar with this palmas device and driver, so do you
mean I can set regulator-ramp-delay property in the DT for ldo6, but I
really don't know what value should I set :(

Thanks.
Wei.
