Thanks for feedback. I have taken care of all your feedback and send
the patch V2.

The discharge path should be only enabled when the output voltage will go to 0.
If it stay in non-zero voltage and enabling discharge path will consume more power.
In suspend, it is not necessarily that voltage output will be 0 and hence it should not
be enabled. In shutdown all power goes off from pmu and hence it is worth to enable
discharge path for quick fall of output voltage.

There is 4 sets of voltage configuration register for voltage output. The power
on reset values for this registers are different and selection of the voltage
configuration register is done by 2 pins of the pmu chip which is board dependent.
Based on board connection, it need to be program the desired voltage configuration
Register to achieve the desired output.
