Added an API to set/clear the switch bit on SMPS10 which can be used by
palmas usb. The switch bit should be set in order for palmas to
supply VBUS and is needed when OMAP is acting as USB HOST.

As per datasheet, SMPS10 has 2 outputs, OUT1 and OUT2.
OUT2 is always available either through parasitic diode or bypass switch
or boost mode. It can not be off at all.
OUT2 can be enable/disable through the switch bit.
The smps10 regulator is implemented enable/disable on which it just
enable/disable boost mode.
I think this is not proper control, actually we should control OUT1
switch on regulator enable/disable of the smps10.
And hence in this case, we will not need this API.
Otherwise it will difficult to use this api outside of palmas.
In tegra platform, we have connected the USB-VBUS supply from
SMPS10-OUT1 and usb driver control the vbus enabled/disable and so it
can not call this API. This functionality need to be exposed through the
regulator only.
