[Aggarwal, Anuj] These PMICs can be used beyond OMAP as well. Hence,
I was proposing a generic file - instead of tying with board-*.c file(s).

But, if we want to keep the changes specific to OMAP3 only, then we can
still create a generic pmic.c|h file in mach-omap2 to consolidate all PMIC
related functions.

Otherwise, we can leave status quo.

[Aggarwal, Anuj] Same pmic.c file will also have one pmic_init()
which will detect the PMIC present and initialize it appropriately.
It will be called by omap3_evm_init() or any other evm-init
function.
