So your recommendation would be to set the ramp_delay value in
regulator_desc structure?

The problem is that value of 30 mv/us in datasheet looks untrustworthy
(copied from other pages) and vendor kernel (which should be a
reference) uses 12 mv/us. Anyway setting any value greater than 0 seems
like better idea than just sticking to 0...
