TWL6030 regulator dynamic operations such as those on vaux2 and vaux3 were reported to be broken on platforms such as pandaboard(OMAP4). Digging deeper into the code, found that 6030 regulator support requires quiet a bit of fixes to make it useable. Major change w.r.t TWL4030 has been the introduction of CFG_STATE register in TWL6030 which is needed to be used for regulator control compared to messages which were used in TWL4030. This could have been the real root cause of the issue fixed in: commit 8b8e2ef328c3378c74fb4347f66df8e58feeaf46 Author: David Anders <x0132446@xxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 18 16:53:20 2011 -0700 OMAP4: PandaBoard: remove unused power regulators the pandaboard does not use the VUSIM or VAUX1 power regulators on the TWL6030 and are left floating. if the VUSIM and VAUX1 power regulators are initilized, noise on the unloaded regulators generates an overcurrent interrupt causing the system to power down. this patch removes the initialization of the unused power regulators of VUSIM and VAUX1. Normally just having the regulator resources in board file should'nt have caused them to have been enabled in the first place - they should have been enabled only when regulator_enable is invoked and disabled in regulator_disable. These unfortunately, are'nt working at the moment and the series fixes the same. This series also allows the regulator framework to actually be able to use the regulator in lower power "SUSPEND" state which if properly used could reduce power consumption in usecases.
