Subject: [PATCH V2 1/2] regulator: pwm: DT: Add ramp delay for exponential voltage transition

Some PWM regulator has the exponential transition in voltage change as
opposite to fixed slew-rate linear transition on other regulators.
For such PWM regulators, add the property to tell that voltage change
is exponential and having fixed delay for any level of change.

This patch is continuation of discussion on patch
	regulator: pwm: Fix regulator ramp delay for continuous mode
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9216857/
where is it discussed to have separate property for PWM which has
exponential voltage transition.

Changes from V1:
- Pass the flag to tell that voltage ramp is exponential instead of
  providing delay.

 Any property defined as part of the core regulator binding can also be used.
