[PATCH] regulator: Ensure voltages are within the allowed range

From: Thierry Reding
Date: Wed Nov 12 2014 - 05:12:19 EST


From: Thierry Reding <treding@xxxxxxxxxx>

Unless a regulator has a fixed output voltage the core will not attempt
to modify the output voltage. This can cause a situation where a driver
enables the regulator but the currently configured voltage is outside
the valid range.

Fix this by constraining the current voltage to the allowed range upon
regulator registration.
