Wow, this is quite a hack. Is the regulator part of the SMSC911x device
or is it outside ? If it's outside the SMSC91xx (which I believe it is)
there should be a regulator driver instead of this hack. For boards
which don't provide such a regulator (and tie the supply pin to some
constant voltage source) there should be a constant regulator supplying
the pin. But this patch is quite hacky.
