But basically is related to our previous discussion in patch: "[RFC 3/5] regulator: core: Only apply constraints if available on list voltage" where you explained [0] to me that child regulators should explicit set their constraints instead of getting from its parent supply. So this patch adds the needed constraints for the children FETs even when their output voltage depend on its parent supply. >> ...I'm also not 100% certain what the above description has to do with >> this change, but I'll admit to having only skimmed some of the earlier >> conversations. > > It's not at all clear to me either looking at the quoted section. > Yes, the commit message is not great to say the least. Also I didn't have the last version of the documentation so I misunderstood from where the constraints mentioned in the schematics came from. Will fix the commit message when posting v2.
