I am always in favor of adding helpers to be used for common tasks. I
am not demanding this (so please ignore my comment if you feel so) but
I guess finding the "closest bigger" from a table is not ramp-delay or
even regulator specific. I believe something like this might live
under lib - if exported.

Anyways, and whatever it is worth:
Acked-by: Matti Vaittinen <matti.vaittinen@...ziesaccount@...il.com>
for exporting such a helper. (Or please disregard the ack if acks are
reserved only for maintainers - It's just a sign that I think this is
a good idea [even if it could live in lib])

Yours
