[PATCH 1/2] regulator: Add support for parsing operation mode

From: Henry Chen
Date: Wed May 11 2016 - 05:13:06 EST


Some regulators support their operating mode to be changed by
consumers for module specific purpose.

This patch adds support to parse those properties and fill the
regulator constraints so the regulator core can call the
regualtor_set_mode to change the modes.
