The regulator device tree has only the power on attribute
"regulator-enable-ramp-delay",
not has power off attribute. The regulator delay looks more like the
HW voltage requirement
of the power ic itself, and I just want to meet the panel spec
requirement. I add regulator-enable-ramp-delay
in dts he can also meet my requirement, but I have no way to control
the power off delays.

Thanks Doug.
