Hi Mark,
Do you mean, why not use regulator_get_exclusive() or regulator_get()?
Because cci and cpu litter core shared buck, it cannot use
regulator_get_exclusive().
Because both cci and cpu want to tune voltage, it cannot use
regulator_get(), otherwise it will get dummy regulator even this buck
doesn't register.as regulator.
