This patch adds support for parsing following regulator contraints from device tree blob.
1. valid modes mask (valid_modes_mask)
2. input microvolt(input_uV)
3. initial mode (initial_mode)
4. initial state (initial_state)
5. state mem (state_mem)
6. state disk (state_disk)
7. state standby (state_standby)

This patch is currently against a linux 3.12.6 kernel.

diffstat for this patch is:

Please let me know any feedback you have on this patch or the approach used.

There are several issues with this patch:

* None of these properties are documented. Documentation is required so
  that the contract is defined. That allows people to learn how to use
  the properties, and makes clear what we can and cannot change
  kernel-side.

* It leaks Linux internal details (e.g. suspend_state_t values,
  valid_mode_mask) without any attempt at abstraction, in violation of
  dt principles.

* Accessors are used poorly. Endianness conversion is done manually
  rather than being left to accessors, and property lengths aren't
  checked.

Typically properties are all lower-case.

As an example, to use accessors correctly, here you should have:

	u32 uv;
	of_property_read_u32(np, "regulator-state-uv", &uv);

However, as far as I can see this value should come from an input supply
anyway.

Thanks,
Mark.
