[patch/rfc 2.6.29-rc6 1/2] regulator: enumerate voltages

From: David Brownell
Date: Mon Feb 23 2009 - 16:00:47 EST


From: David Brownell <dbrownell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a basic mechanism for regulators to report the discrete
voltages they support: one method to count how many voltages
are available, and another to enumerate them.

Use those methods to force machine-level constraints into bounds.
(Example: regulator supports 1.8V, 2.4V, 2.6V, 3.3V, and board
constraints for that rail are 2.0V to 3.6V ... so the range of
voltages is then 2.4V to 3.3V on this board.)

Export those voltages to the regulator consumer interface, so for
example regulator hooked up to an MMC/SD/SDIO slot can report the
actual voltage options available to cards connected there.

I'm not particularly pleased with these names; suggestions?
This could also be done with one fewer method by designating a
special list_voltage() return value, but I like this better.
