The Amstrad Delta on-board latch2 bit named MODEM_NRESET, now available as a GPIO pin AMS_DELTA_GPIO_PIN_NMODEM_RESET, is used to power up/down (bring into/out of a reset state) two distinct on-board devices simultaneously: the modem, and the voice codec. As a consequence, that bit is, or can be, manipulated concurrently by two drivers, or their platform provided hooks. Instead of updating those drivers to use the gpiolib API as a new method of controlling the MODEM_NRESET pin state, like it was done to other drivers accessing latch2 pins, and still being vulnerable to potential concurrency conflicts, or trying to solve that sharing issue with a custom piece of code, set up a fixed regulator device on top of that GPIO pin and update both drivers to manipulate that regulator, not the GPIO pin directly.
