If this patch added the notifier that would be a nice solution, but
right now it potentially introduced a regression. You have made me a little curious...
Are you seeing a significant cost to querying that regulator voltage?
If so, I'd imagine it's a lack of caching in the regulator driver or similar.
Scale readback via sysfs shouldn't be in a fast path anyway.

You can't depend on what boards today do, because someone with a board
built tomorrow may well use an old kernel which supports the voltage
changing, and then see a regression when they upgrade to the kernel
containing this patch.
