[PATCH] regulator: Call into regulator driver only when voltage min/max really changes.

[Saravana Kannan]

Even in cases where the consumer driver calls the regulator core with
different voltage min/max values, the application of the various
voltage constraints could result in the min/max voltage values passed
to the regulator driver to be unchanged since the previous invocation.

Optimize these cases by not calling into the regulator driver and not
sending incorrect/unnecessary voltage change notifications.
