[PATCH 0/2] regulator: Fix boot speed regression w/ off-on-delay-us

From: Douglas Anderson
Date: Mon Mar 13 2023 - 14:19:11 EST


These two patches together fix a boot speed regression on
sc7180-trogdor boards which use off-on-delay-us together with
regulator-boot-on with the eDP power rail.

The first patch is _almost_ a revert of another patch. Depending on
when the regulator is probed and the actual delay, the end result
might be the same as a revert or might result in a delay that's
somewhere between "no delay" and a full delay. As talked about in the
patch, I believe this is the correct behavior and, if the problems
fixed in the original patch are still present, I'm hoping that they
can be fixed in a cleaner way.

The first patch doesn't fully eliminate the boot speed regression, it
only gets us back ~250 of the 500 ms delay. The second patch gets us
the rest of the way.

The two patches can be applied independently of each other.

regulator: core: Shorten off-on-delay-us for always-on/boot-on by time
since booted
regulator: fixed: Set PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS
