Subject: Re: [PATCH] Parse missing regulator constraints from device tree blob

Hi Mark,

New patch incorporating your suggestions is given below.

>   the properties, and makes clear what we can and cannot change
>   kernel-side.
Done.  The documentation is in the patch below.

> * It leaks Linux internal details (e.g. suspend_state_t values,
>   valid_mode_mask) without any attempt at abstraction, in violation of
>   dt principles.
Unlike valid_ops_mask, valid_mode_mask cannot be derived from the other settings.
It depends on the hardware (regulator) capability. So, it has to be specified in DT blob.

> * Accessors are used poorly. Endianness conversion is done manually

>   checked.
Used the accessors for u32 and bool.

This is not input supply. This is operating voltage to be set when device suspends.
