[PATCH 4/6] regulator: core: Add external-output support

Zev Weiss zev at bewilderbeest.net
Wed May 4 16:52:50 AEST 2022


Regulators feeding external outputs (i.e. supplying devices we don't
control) can be switched on and off by userspace via the 'state' sysfs
attribute, which is now (conditionally) writable.  They are also not
automatically disabled in regulator_late_cleanup(), since we have no
way of knowing that they're not actually in use.

 		NOTE: this field can be used in conjunction with microvolts
