Subject: [PATCH] regulator: core: export function to check if regulator
	always on

Export a function to allow a consumer to check if its supply
regulator is always on. Drivers might wish to take different
action based on this - for example skipping time-consuming
power-saving preparations that are irrelevant if the regulator
cannot be disabled.
