Just to avoid duplicate work - I started working with this. Please let
me know if you are already working on it so I am not doing this in
vain.

By the way - do you have some nice test cases for regulators hidden
somewhere? If so, do you think you could share them? I sure have some
for BD718x7 but they are somewhat clumsy and require special HW. (I've
never liked unit-tests but I must admit there are some specific cases
where they would be pretty usable).
