In general when the consumer of a regulator requests that the
regulator be disabled it no longer will be drawing much load from the
regulator--it should just be the leakage current and that should be
very close to 0.
Up to this point the regulator framework has continued to count a
consumer's load request for disabled regulators. This has led to code
patterns that look like this:
enable_my_thing():
regular_set_load(reg, load_uA)
regulator_enable(reg)
disable_my_thing():
regulator_disable(reg)
regulator_set_load(reg, 0)
Sometimes disable_my_thing() sets a nominal (<= 100 uA) load instead
of setting a 0 uA load. I will make the assertion that nearly all (if
not all) places where we set a nominal load of 100 uA or less we end
up with a result that is the same as if we had set a load of 0 uA.
Specifically:
- The whole point of setting the load is to help set the operating
mode of the regulator. Higher loads may need less efficient
operating modes.
- The only time this matters at all is if there is another consumer of
the regulator that wants the regulator on. If there are no other
consumers of the regulator then the regulator will turn off and we
don't care about the operating mode.
- If there's another consumer that actually wants the regulator on
then presumably it is requesting a load that makes our nominal
<= 100 uA load insignificant.
A quick survey of the existing callers to regulator_set_load() to see
how everyone uses it:

On Odroid XU3/4 and other Exynos5422 based boards there is a case, that
different devices on the board are supplied by different regulators
with non-fixed voltages. If one of these devices temporarily requires
higher voltage, there might occur a situation that the spread between
devices' voltages is so high, that there is a risk of changing
'high' and 'low' states on the interconnection between devices powered
by those regulators.
Add new structure "coupling_desc" to regulator_dev, which contains
pointers to all coupled regulators including the owner of the structure,
number of coupled regulators and counter of currently resolved
regulators.
Add of_functions to parse all data needed in regulator coupling.
Provide method to check DTS data consistency. Check if each coupled
regulator's max_spread is equal and if their lists of regulators match.

If device tree is not enabled, of_find_regulator_by_node() should have
a dummy function since the function call is still there.
This is to fix build error after CONFIG_NO_AUTO_INLINE is introduced.
If this option is enabled, GCC will not auto-inline functions that are
not explicitly marked as inline.
In this case (no CONFIG_OF), the copmiler will report error in function
regulator_dev_lookup().
W/O NO_AUTO_INLINE, function of_get_regulator() is auto-inlined and then
the call to of_find_regulator_by_node() is optimized out since
of_get_regulator() always return NULL.
W/ NO_AUTO_INLINE, the return value of of_get_regulator() is a variable
so the call to of_find_regulator_by_node() cannot be optimized out. So
we need a stub of_find_regulator_by_node().
static struct regulator_dev *regulator_dev_lookup(struct device *dev,
const char *supply)
{
struct regulator_dev *r = NULL;
struct device_node *node;
struct regulator_map *map;
const char *devname = NULL;
regulator_supply_alias(&dev, &supply);
/* first do a dt based lookup */
if (dev && dev->of_node) {
node = of_get_regulator(dev, supply);
if (node) {
r = of_find_regulator_by_node(node);
if (r)
return r;

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator into regulator-core
|

As of_find_regulator_by_node() is an of function it should be moved from
core.c to of_regulator.c. It provides better separation of device tree
functions from the core and allows other of_functions in of_regulator.c
to resolve device_node to regulator_dev. This will be useful for
implementation of parsing coupled regulators properties.
Declare of_find_regulator_by_node() function in internal.h as well as
regulator_class and dev_to_rdev(), as they are needed by
of_find_regulator_by_node().

Some regulator consumers would like to make the regulator device
keeping a voltage range output when the system entering into
suspend states.
Making regulator voltage be an array can allow consumers to set voltage
for normal state as well as for suspend states through the same code.

The supply_name member of struct regulator can be const as we
don't change it in the regulator core. Furthermore, when we copy
the supply name we can use kstrdup_const() here to avoid a copy
if the name is in the ro data section.

Instead of separate "exclusive" and "allow_dummy" arguments, that formed 3
valid combinations (normal, exclusive and optional) and an invalid one,
let's accept explicit "get_type", like we did in devm-managed code.

When drivers use simplified DT parsing method (they provide
'regulator_desc.of_match') they still may want to parse custom
properties for some of the regulators. For example some of the
regulators support GPIO enable control.
Add a driver-supplied callback for such case. This way the regulator
core parses common bindings offloading a lot of code from drivers and
still custom properties may be used.
The callback, called for each parsed regulator, may modify the
'regulator_config' initially passed to regulator_register().

Currently regulator drivers which support DT all repeat very similar code
to supply a list of known regulator identifiers to be matched with DT,
convert that to platform data which is then matched up with the regulators
as they are registered. This is both fiddly to get right and for devices
which can use the standard helpers to provide their operations is the main
source of code in the driver.
Since this code is essentially identical for most drivers we can factor it
out into the core, moving the identifiers in the match table into the
regulator descriptors and also allowing drivers to pass in the name of the
subnode to search. When a driver provides an of_match string for the
regulator the core will attempt to use that to obtain init_data, allowing
the driver to remove all explicit code for DT parsing and simply provide
data instead.
The current code leaks the phandles for the child nodes, this will be
addressed incrementally and makes no practical difference for FDT anyway
as the DT data structures are never freed.

Cut down on the size of core.c a bit more and ensure that the devres
versions of things don't do too much peering inside the internals of
the APIs they wrap.
