Hello Mark,

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

The problem is that not all regulators supports the same operational modes. For
instance regulators LDO 1, 20, 21 and 3 does not support REGULATOR_MODE_STANDBY
so if the condition is not met a break is not needed since the default case is
to warn that the mode is not supported.

But I'll rework that logic on v2 to make it cleaner and have a break on each
case and don't rely on case cascading.

Ok, I'll use gpiod_request() on v2.

Ok, will do.

Ok.

Ok.
