[PATCH 2/2] media: pwm-ir-tx: add regulator support
From: Roman Vivchar via B4 Relay
Date: Mon Nov 02 2026 - 11:18:28 EST
From: Roman Vivchar <rva333@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
On some boards, the IR LED shares a power rail with other components.
If that rail is turned off, IR transmission can't function properly.
Add optional regulator support to ensure the power supply is enabled when
needed.
