Ah, interesting. ...so what we really need to be able to do is to say that the regulator we for vqmmc have supports the ranges 3.0V - 3.3V and 1.7V - 1.95V but not anything in between 1.95V ad 3.0V. I have no idea how to express that in the regulator framework. Technically you could take the IO Voltage Domains code (responsible for choosing the 1.8V range or the 3.3V range) and have it communicate the requirements to the regulator framework if you could figure out how to communicate them. ...of course if you implemented my suggestion of keeping vqmmc as the highest voltage <= vmmc then maybe the whole point is moot and we don't have to figure it out. Just make sure that vmmc never goes below 3.0V. -Doug -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
