[PATCH v2 0/7] regulator: new API for voltage reference supplies

From: David Lechner
Date: Mon Apr 29 2024 - 19:41:13 EST


In the IIO subsystem, we noticed a pattern in many drivers where we need
to get, enable and get the voltage of a supply that provides a reference
voltage. In these cases, we only need the voltage and not a handle to
the regulator. Another common pattern is for chips to have an internal
reference voltage that is used when an external reference is not
available. There are also a few drivers outside of IIO that do the same.

So we would like to propose a new regulator consumer API to handle these
specific cases to avoid repeating the same boilerplate code in multiple
drivers.

As an example of how these functions are used, I have included a few
patches to consumer drivers. But to avoid a giant patch bomb, I have
omitted the iio/adc and iio/dac patches I have prepared from this
series. I will send those separately but these will add 36 more users
of devm_regulator_get_enable_read_voltage() in addition to the 6 here.
In total, this will eliminate nearly 1000 lines of similar code and will
simplify writing and reviewing new drivers in the future.

Changes in v2:
- Reworked regulator patch to remove dev_err_probe() and properly unwind
- Combined two proposed functions into a single function
- Renamed function to devm_regulator_get_enable_read_voltage() everywhere
- Fixed other feedback on consumer patches (see individual patches)
- Picked up Jonathan's Reviewed-bys (hopefully changes were trivial enough)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240327-regulator-get-enable-get-votlage-v1-0-5f4517faa059@xxxxxxxxxxxx
