It is getting used below.

This is not a GPIO Regulator.

Ok.

Ok. I will use the defines in the irq.h file.

Oops my bad.. I will change this.

I am not sure of a case. I see that "warm-reset" property is used
Inside the regulator driver. This property is again HW specific
And it represents the warm reset sensitivity. If this 1 then voltage
Values during warm-reset are maintained if not then default OTP values
Are re-loaded during warm-reset.

Ok. The intent here was to expose one example with a set of all the regulators
And their operating range of voltages.
Couple of files already have such examples:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/tps65090.txt
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/tps65217.txt
I can knock off all of them and retain couple of them
if this is not needed.
