Subject: [GIT PULL] Voltage & Current regulator framework

Hi Linus,

Please pull the voltage and current regulator framework along with
the bq24022 regulator driver.

This framework is designed to provide a generic interface to voltage and
current regulators within the Linux 2.6 kernel. It's intended to provide
voltage and current control to client or consumer drivers and also
provide status information to user space applications through a sysfs
interface.

The intention is to allow systems to dynamically control regulator
output in order to save power and prolong battery life. This applies to
both voltage regulators (where voltage output is controllable) and
current sinks (where current output is controllable).

This framework has been in Andrews mm tree and Linux-next without
incident.

Thanks!

Liam
