[PATCH 1/3] regulator: add support for user space controlled regulators

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Add a new flag to struct regulator_desc indicating whether a regulator
can be controlled from user space and implement a routine in regulator
core allowing to toggle the regulator state via the sysfs 'state'
attribute.

This is useful for gpio power switches.
