I can't follow this explanation at all, I really can't understand what these functions are supposed to do or how they are supposed to be used. Nothing in the rest of this series is at all enlightening either. It seems there is some need for a consumer to query things about the suspend state but there is no obvious connection from that to adding these new operations for regulator drivers.
