This commit introduces netlink event support to the regulator subsystem.
Changes:
- Introduce event.c and regnl.h for netlink event handling.
- Implement reg_generate_netlink_event to broadcast regulator events.
- Update Makefile to include the new event.c file.

This looks a lot nicer, there's some feedback below but nothing
maissively substantial.

This is essentially the entire file - it's probably better to just put
the stub functions in the header and do the building with Kconfig.

Given that this is going to get sent to userspace shouldn't it be in a
uapi header? Some of the other event types don't seem to do this
though... that might be an issue with those examples though. We'll
also make the event numbers into uapi so they should go in a uapi header
as well.
I'm also not clear on where the 15 byte limit comes from.

Everything else in regulator is EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() so this should be
too - though given that the only caller is _notifier_call_chain() which
is in the core does it need to be exported at all? I can't see a case
for anything calling it independently of that.

Sure.
As I understood, Will add an option REGULATOR_NETLINK to include the
event.c file during build.

Will update next revision to include uapi header.

I felt 15 characters would be sufficient for regulator names.
Would need your inputs to make sure here.

Agree. The current scope is limited to regulator core so will remove the
export.

It does feel like it might be a bit tight - perhaps double it?

Sure. Will change to 32.
Also there is a possibility of regulator name duplication.
And below mechanism is already used in debugfs:
const char *rname = rdev_get_name(rdev);
char name[NAME_MAX];
/* Avoid duplicate debugfs directory names */
if (parent && rname == rdev->desc->name) {
snprintf(name, sizeof(name), "%s-%s", dev_name(parent),
rname);
rname = name;
}
I need recommendations here.

Naresh
