Hi Stephen,
Please find my comments inline.

[Bala]: this value specifies the output load current required to turn
on
the wcn3990.
in struct defined vddio\vddxtal are smps, with fixed load.
regs from vddcore/vddpa/vddldo are programmable line
regulators,
in which we need to set the basic load.
I got that part, but a load of 1 still seems like a nonsensical value.
Is it to workaround some issue with the regulator driver?
[Bala]: i don't think, it is issue with regulator driver.
It's also pretty weird to be setting regulator voltages here in the
driver. Typically that's configured on the board and then the DT has
the
right voltage already. The only case when the voltage may need to be
set
by the driver is if the hardware can dynamically scale the voltage for
things like DVFS. It looks like here that the voltage is always fixed,
so probably we don't need to have any sort of voltage setting in this
driver and can rely on the DTS file to get things right.
[Bala]: voltage required by wcn3990 are fixed. now i am using a
programmable line regulators.
in future, if i have an platform where we have a variable
voltage regulators used. i.e. an voltage can be scaled to the required
voltage to wcn3990.
in that case, we explicitly restrict the regulator output
voltage to wcn3990 standards.
let us take an example. i am using an programmable regulator,
with varying output voltage ranges from 1v to 5v.
but from wcn3990 we require an voltage 3.3v. while enabling the
regulators.. so that output of regulator will be 3.3v fixed.
one more case, every time when we have platform change.. we need
to ensure that regulators voltage level should be matching with wcn3990.
instead we expect platform vendor to do all these. i want to
restrict the voltages in driver itself.
please let me know, if cleared your query.
