That would be a good idea if the darn thing was documented:
[hans at localhost linux-2.6.23-rc9.git4]$ grep -r powersupply Documentation
Documentation/arm/SA1100/LART:through a number of connectors. The powersupply 
accepts voltages
[hans at localhost linux-2.6.23-rc9.git4]$

And:
[hans at localhost linux-2.6.23-rc9.git4]$ find -name '*powersupply*.c'
[hans at localhost linux-2.6.23-rc9.git4]$

And:

[hans at localhost linux-2.6.23-rc9.git4]$ grep -r powersupply .
./Documentation/arm/SA1100/LART:through a number of connectors. The powersupply 
accepts voltages
./drivers/sbus/char/bbc_envctrl.c:       * power for cpu/system and 'on' fo the 
powersupply fan
[hans at localhost linux-2.6.23-rc9.git4]$

So either it isn't named powersupply or it is very well hiden.

GRR, found it, actually it is named power_supply. Yes that will work well, thanks!

Regards,

Hans
