Kernel does not know the initial voltage set by the bootloaders.
During regulator registration, the voltage variable is just declared
and it is zero. Based on that, the regulator framework considers current
the voltage as zero and tries to bring up each regulator to minimum
the supported voltage.
This introduces a dip in the voltage during kernel boot and gets
stabilized once the voltage scaling comes into picture.
To avoid the voltage dip, adding support to define the
bootup voltage set by the boodloaders and based on it, regulator
framework understands that proper voltage is already set

Or maybe hook it up to the spmi_regulator_common_get_voltage()
from the SPMI regulator driver and read the real voltage instead
of relying on hardcoded values thay may differ between boards?

In IPQ9574, SPMI regulator is not used. We are using RPM-Glink
communication and the regulators are controlled by RPM.
In this case, we don't have an option to readback the bootup voltage and
so, we have hardcoded the values

Unless something changed, RPM regulator framework is simply a
fancy front-end for communicating with the PMIC over SPMI, AFAIK..

Currently in our driver, the voltage write request will be sent to RPM
via GLINK which then writes it to the PMIC over I2C using the below APIs
qcom_rpm_smd_write -> rpmsg_send
In IPQ9574, we do not have SPMI support or the support to readback voltage.

I think this is a peculiarity of the particular board that than a
property of the PMIC. Please describe this in the board or SoC DTS if
the value can not be read using the software .

Okay, I didn't quite catch that there's *only* an i2c PMIC on this
platform.. Looking at the MP5496 datasheet though, reading back
the voltage should be possible via simply reading the fields that
are used to set it.

The CPR regulator operates in closed loop mode and the RPM can
independently update the PMIC voltage.
So, Performing an i2c read to the PMIC would introduce conflicts when
RPM uses the i2c for any of the voltage write or read operations.

The bootup voltage is actually blown into the OTP register of the PMIC
and so, it remains the same across boards for IPQ9574 SoC

So.. are we even going to set voltage from Linux at all, for example
for DCVS? If not, maybe we can simply not register the regulator and
let the non-APSS parts handle it themselves?

In IPQ9574, PMIC basically controls three rails. In that, RPM has
control over two rails (MX and CX) & APSS has control over the APC rail.
RPM controls the MX and CX rails independently. For APC rail, APSS sends
the voltage request to RPM via GLINK and RPM takes care of accessing the
PMIC via I2C for APSS voltage requests & its own requests. This approach
helps us to avoid arbitration. In this case, if we directly use the I2C
to read the PMIC we would end up having issues, if RPM is accessing the
PMIC.
