As far as I know most regulators have fixed switching frequencies,
so there is no common property name so far. I added regulator
framework people, since this property should be regulator specific.
Apart from introducing a custom/common switching-frequency property
the dts could also expose the PLL like this and use the common
clock-frequency property:
power: power@80044000 {
compatible = "fsl,imx28-power";
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <1>;
reg = <0x80044000 0x2000>;
interrupts = <6>;
ranges;
powerpll {
compatible = "fsl,imx28-power-pll"
#clock-cells = <0>;
clock-frequency = <12345>;
}
}
