Merge tag 'regulator-v3.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator
Pull regulator updates from Mark Brown: "A couple of nice new features this month, the ability to map regulators in order to allow voltage control by external coprocessors is something people have been asking for for a long time. - improved support for switch only "regulators", allowing current state to be read from the parent regulator but no setting. - support for obtaining the register access method used to set voltages, for use in systems which can offload control of this to a coprocessor (typically for DVFS). - support for Active-Semi AC8846, Dialog DA9211 and Texas Instruments TPS65917" * tag 'regulator-v3.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator: (58 commits) regulator: act8865: fix build when OF is not enabled regulator: act8865: add act8846 to DT binding documentation regulator: act8865: add support for act8846 regulator: act8865: prepare support for other act88xx devices regulator: act8865: set correct number of regulators in pdata regulator: act8865: Remove error variable in act8865_pmic_probe regulator: act8865: fix parsing of platform data regulator: tps65090: Set voltage for fixed regulators regulator: core: Allow to get voltage count and list from parent regulator: core: Get voltage from parent if not available regulator: Add missing statics and inlines for stub functions regulator: lp872x: Don't set constraints within the regulator driver regmap: Fix return code for stub regmap_get_device() regulator: s2mps11: Update module description and Kconfig to add S2MPU02 support regulator: Add helpers for low-level register access regmap: Allow regmap_get_device() to be used by modules regmap: Add regmap_get_device regulator: da9211: Remove unnecessary devm_regulator_unregister() calls regulator: Add DT bindings for tps65218 PMIC regulators. regulator: da9211: new regulator driver ...

+7. Regulator Direct Register Access
+===================================
+Some kinds of power management hardware or firmware are designed such that
+they need to do low-level hardware access to regulators, with no involvement
+from the kernel. Examples of such devices are:
+
+- clocksource with a voltage-controlled oscillator and control logic to change
+ the supply voltage over I2C to achieve a desired output clock rate
+- thermal management firmware that can issue an arbitrary I2C transaction to
+ perform system poweroff during overtemperature conditions
+
+To set up such a device/firmware, various parameters like I2C address of the
+regulator, addresses of various regulator registers etc. need to be configured
+to it. The regulator framework provides the following helpers for querying
+these details.
+
+Bus-specific details, like I2C addresses or transfer rates are handled by the
+regmap framework. To get the regulator's regmap (if supported), use :-
+
+struct regmap *regulator_get_regmap(struct regulator *regulator);
+
+To obtain the hardware register offset and bitmask for the regulator's voltage
+selector register, use :-
+
+int regulator_get_hardware_vsel_register(struct regulator *regulator,
+ unsigned *vsel_reg,
+ unsigned *vsel_mask);
+
+To convert a regulator framework voltage selector code (used by
+regulator_list_voltage) to a hardware-specific voltage selector that can be
+directly written to the voltage selector register, use :-
+
+int regulator_list_hardware_vsel(struct regulator *regulator,
+ unsigned selector);
