[PATCH 1/2] regulator: pwm: DT: Add ramp delay for exponential voltage transition

From: Laxman Dewangan
Date: Fri Nov 04 2016 - 13:54:34 EST


Some PWM regulator has the exponential transition in voltage change as
opposite to fixed slew-rate linear transition on other regulators.
For such PWM regulators, add the property for providing the delay
from DT node.

Add DT binding details of the new property
"pwm-regulator-voltage-ramp-time-us" added for providing voltage
transition delay.

This patch is continuation of discussion on patch
regulator: pwm: Fix regulator ramp delay for continuous mode
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9216857/
where is it discussed to have separate property for PWM which has
exponential voltage transition.
