Not my regulator tree, Liam's regulator tree - (CCed, not deleting any
text for him).

Either that or merge the regulator driver via Eric's tree - I'd expect
it's more likely that there would be collisions with other changes to
the ARM machine support than with the regulator API.

Another option would be to create a git branch with the regulator driver
in it which gets merged in by both Eric and Liam.

This reflects the issue I mentioned with your regulator driver not
implementing enable and disable. This also makes the always_on
constraint look very suspicious - if something did set that then the
regulator would in fact go off which looks odd.

What about vcc_usim? I'd expect tools like sparse will complain about
it being unreference.
