Subject: [PATCH 01/15] regulator: consumer device interface


Add support to allow consumer device drivers to control their regulator
power supply.

This uses a similar API to the kernel clock interface in that consumer
drivers can get and put a regulator (like they can with clocks atm) and
get/set voltage, current limit, mode, enable and disable. This should
allow consumers complete control over their supply voltage and current
limit. This also compiles out if not in use so drivers can be reused in
systems with no regulator based power control.

+ * EXPERIMENTAL FEATURES:
+ *   Dynamic Regulator operating Mode Switching (DRMS) - allows regulators
+ *   to use most efficient operating mode depending upon voltage and load and
+ *   is transparent to client drivers.
+ *
+ *   e.g. Devices x,y,z share regulator r. Device x and y draw 20mA each during
+ *   IO and 1mA at idle. Device z draws 100mA when under load and 5mA when
+ *   idling. Regulator r has > 90% efficiency in NORMAL mode at loads > 100mA
+ *   but this drops rapidly to 60% when below 100mA. Regulator r has > 90%
+ *   efficiency in IDLE mode at loads < 10mA. Thus regulator r will operate
+ *   in normal mode for loads > 10mA and in IDLE mode for load <= 10mA.

+ * Regulator operating modes.
+ *
+ * Regulators can run in a variety of different operating modes depending on
+ * output load. This allows further system power savings by selecting the
+ * best (and most efficient) regulator mode for a desired load.
+ *
+ * Most drivers will only care about NORMAL. The modes below are generic and
+ * will probably not match the naming convention of your regulator data sheet
+ * but should match the use cases in the datasheet.
+ *
+ * In order of power efficiency (least efficient at top).
+ *
+ *  Mode       Description
+ *  FAST       Regulator can handle fast changes in it's load.
+ *             e.g. useful in CPU voltage & frequency scaling where
+ *             load can quickly increase with CPU frequency increases.
+ *
+ *  NORMAL     Normal regulator power supply mode. Most drivers will
+ *             use this mode.
+ *
+ *  IDLE       Regulator runs in a more efficient mode for light
+ *             loads. Can be used for devices that have a low power
+ *             requirement during periods of inactivity. This mode
+ *             may be more noisy than NORMAL and may not be able
+ *             to handle fast load switching.
+ *
+ *  STANDBY    Regulator runs in the most efficient mode for very
+ *             light loads. Can be used by devices when they are
+ *             in a sleep/standby state. This mode is likely to be
+ *             the most noisy and may not be able to handle fast load
+ *             switching.
+ *
+ * NOTE: Most regulators will only support a subset of these modes. Some
+ * will only just support NORMAL.
+ *
+ * These modes can be OR'ed together to make up a mask of valid register modes.
