The patch regulator: pfuze100: add optional disable switch-regulators binding
has been applied to the regulator tree at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator.git All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted. You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed. If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced. Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail. Thanks, Mark >From 78170811a2048de8e77a27a053be8b3eb3d4e556 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marco Felsch <m.fel...@pengutronix.de> Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2018 09:47:46 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] regulator: pfuze100: add optional disable switch-regulators binding This binding is used to keep the backward compatibility with the current dtb's [1]. The binding informs the driver that the unused switch regulators can be disabled. If it is not specified, the driver doesn't disable the switch regulators.
