[RFC PATCH] regulator: core: do not disable regulator if boot_on is set

From: Pramod Gurav
Date: Tue Nov 25 2014 - 05:49:54 EST


Currently the regulator core disables the regulators which are unused
or whose reference count is zero or if they are configured always_on.
This change adds a check in this logic to see if a regulator is
configured as boot_on and does not disable it if found true.

The issue was found on apq8064 based IFC6410 on which a fixed regulator
configured as regulator-boot-on in DT and was being disabled when not in
use. Tested this change on this board and found working.
