    PM / OPP: Reword binding supporting multiple regulators per device · 579c49ef
    Viresh Kumar authored
    On certain platforms (like TI), DVFS for a single device (CPU) requires
    configuring multiple power supplies.
    
    The OPP bindings already contains binding and example to explain this
    case, but it isn't sufficient.
    
    - There is no way for the code parsing these bindings to know which
      voltage values belong to which power supply.
    
    - It is not possible to know the order in which the supplies need to be
      configured while switching OPPs.
    
    This patch clarifies on those details by mentioning that such
    information is left for the implementation specific bindings to explain.
    They may want to hardcode such details or implement their own properties
    to get such information. All implementations using multiple regulators
    for their devices must provide a binding document explaining their
    implementation.
