Make the entire comment block a C++ comment so it looks more intentional
and add a blank line before the headers for legibility.

This looks very weird - why might we not have a parent PMIC, what is the
lock doing and what is this wrapper function intended to do?  Similar
issues apply to the voltage functions, if there's any need for this it
needs to be better documented but it really doesn't look like a good
idea.

There's loads of coding style problems with this code, please refer to
the coding style - indentation is weird and if there's { } on one side
of an else it should be on both.
