The fixed regulator driver uses of_get_fixed_voltage_config()
to extract fixed_voltage_config structure contents from device tree.

Also add documenation for additional bindings for fixed
regulators that can be passed through dt.

Shouldn't a fixed regulator just be a subset of a fixed one? If so, should the
binding be merged with that one?

Other regulator binding usese uV, here it's microvolts. Pick one, microvolts
has the benefit of not needing caps. :)

startup-delay-ms ?

Some gpio specifiers allow you to specify active high or low flags, but either
way something like "enable-active-low" as a property (with active high as
default if property is missing) is a more devicetreey convention.

> +- regulator-fixed-enabled-at-boot: 1 = yes, 0 = no

Same here, you can drop the prefix. Also, the regular regulators use
"regulator-name" for the supply name, it would make sense to reuse the same
naming here, right?

This is not a valid gpio specifier.

This needs to be fixed to parse a gpio properly instead.

No, the fixed voltage regultor is a superset of a general regulator - it
has additional information like the voltage it supplies and the optional
enable GPIO.

I'm having a hard time associating your second comment with the property
being discussed - could you clarify please?

Still, seems like it could be merged into one regulator binding.

It was the first comment I wrote on the whole block and later interspersed
other comments above, so I don't blame you for not understanding. The
second comment was related to the "regulator-fixed-supply" property at
the top of the block.

I don't see how you can usefully do that, the task of plumbing a
regulator into a board is largely orthogonal to the specific feature set
of a given regulator.  The specific bindings for a fixed voltage
regulator would be useful or unhelpful for most regultors controlled via
I2C.

I meant more that the fixed regulators should reuse as much as
possible from the generic regulator bindings, instead of completely
forking them.

Then, depending on how they are controlled, there will be more
specific bindings. So the case of a gpio-controlled fixed regulator
would have a binding where the format of the properties to find the
gpio, etc, would be described. But things like voltage (without a
range, obviously) would be using the same bindings as the other
regulators.

Does that make more sense?

That appears to be what's going on?  The fixed voltage regulator
includes by reference the core regulator binding, all of the properties
it defines with the possible exception of the supply name are not
covered in the core binding.

The only overlap I'm seeing is the voltage?  

The intended semantic for the voltage is rather different.  The core
binding for the voltage specifies the range of voltages it is possible
to set a regulator to on a given board and is used to give permission to
the system to reconfigure the regulator.  The binding here tells the
system what voltage a fixed voltage regulator is running at.  We could
have the fixed voltage regulator read the same binding - though there's
some risk of mild confusion it shouldn't be too bad.

The fixed-regulator binding makes no reference to the generic binding,
and the example includes no properties that are defined in that one.
So I definitely did not make that conclusion based on what I saw.

Yeah, voltage is the obvious one where fixed would have a max and min
that is the same when you have a fixed regulator.

But even things like allowing (optional) attributes such as
startup-delay on non-fixed regulators could make sense. Keep in mind
that the device tree should focus on describing the hardware, not just
what the linux driver needs from it. So maybe instead of
startup-delay, specifying ramp-up speed instead of time needed until
power is good could be the way to go there.

This is in general something that a driver should know as a result of
knowing which regulator it's dealing with - in many cases these are
properties which can be varied at runtime on hardware which has register
control.  Replicating this into the device tree would make things more
error prone.
