[PATCH 1/2] dt-bindings: regulator: Add dt property

[Naresh Solanki]

Add DT property regulator-supplies.
This enables us to couple one or more regulator output to gether. This
is use in case of Single connector having 2 or more supplies.

[PATCH 2/2] regulator: userspace-consumer: Multiple regulators

[Naresh Solanki]

Use property regulator-supplies to determine all regulator
supplies.
This is useful in case of a connector having 2 or more supplies.
Example: PCIe connector on mainboard can be powered by 12V & 3.3V
suplies.

Was this meant to be specified as a string-array to allow providing 
multiple names?

I think it would be nice to also update the examples to show what a 
multi-supply instance would look like.

A slightly more descriptive subject line would also be good -- "Add dt 
property" is a bit vague.

AFAICT this doesn't appear to implement the "vout" default specified in 
the dt-binding patch?

Also, since the core of the userspace-consumer driver itself already 
supports multiple regulators, it might be nice for the subject line to 
mention DT supplies or something a bit more specifically.

Suggestion ?
How about like 'Allow multiple supplies' or 'Add support for multiple 
supplies'

The "regulator-supplies" property will hold the default value of "vout" 
unless specified otherwise. As a result, the string enumeration 
retrieves the value of "vout" by default, and the "vout-supply" property 
is utilized for the regulator.

With the disclaimer that I'm not a DT expert, that's not my 
understanding of how DT works.  I don't think the 'default' value 
specified in the binding forces the fdt to always include that value if 
it's not present in the dts (since I'm pretty sure dtc doesn't even look 
at the binding to know that a default exists when compiling the dts); 
rather, it's information meant to be used by the software implementing 
support for that device (e.g. a driver for it) about what value to 
assume if the property isn't present in the fdt.

I meant that it should explicitly mention "DT" (or perhaps "OF").  The 
driver's structure has supported multiple supplies since it was first 
introduced in 2009, so "Support multiple supplies" sounds like this 
commit is adding functionality that was already there.  What this patch 
is doing is connecting that existing support to the OF support logic so 
that it can be used in a device-tree context.

I apologize for the oversight on my part. Upon further testing, I have 
discovered that the default did not reflect in the debug prints. I will 
address this issue and include the proper fix in the next patchset. 
Thank you for bringing this to my attention

Sure. Will make it something like "Support multiple supplies in DT".
