This really isn't what the set_mode() API is for - especially the fact
that it supports turning the regulator off which really isn't what
set_mode() is supposed to do. A generic driver using this API isn't
going to play too well.
Then what should be the method? Is it through the macro similar to patch V1 where LOW_POWER mode option come from platform data? The idea is to set the regulator in OFF or low power mode based on external control.

+ if (pmic->board_ext_control[id]) {
+ u8 regoffs = (pmic->ext_sleep_control[id]>> 8)& 0xFF;
+ u8 bit_pos = (1<< pmic->ext_sleep_control[id]& 0xFF);
+ int ret = 0;
+ if ((mode == REGULATOR_MODE_IDLE) ||
+ (mode == REGULATOR_MODE_STANDBY))
+ ret = tps65910_set_bits(mfd,
+ TPS65910_SLEEP_KEEP_LDO_ON + regoffs, bit_pos);
As a coding style thing this should be a switch statement.
I will take care in next patch once above question is clear.
