This patch is a real fix since the the SD error goes away and the regulator
driver probes correctly now.

I think it's worth mentioning that this is the case for the Exynos5422 Odroid
XU{3,4} boards. I mean, the regulators can be used for anything but are those
boards that use LDO19 as the SD card supply.

In fact, I wonder if the subject line shouldn't be changed to something like:

"regulator: s2mps11: Fix invalid min selector and voltages num for buck9"

since the real problem is that the .linear_min_sel and .n_voltages are wrong.
The fact that the SD was failing on Odroids is just a consequence of that
(although I agree that this information should be part of the commit message).

I don't have a datasheet for this PMIC but I wonder if buck9 is the only
buck regulator whose minimal register value is != 0. If that's not the
case, it would be good to fix the descriptions for all other regulators.

Maybe the regulator_desc_s2mps11_buck6_10() define should be renamed?
Since it's no longer true that can be used for buck6-10, so the name
is misleading now.

Patch looks good to me though and as I said it fixes the issue so:
