Laxman Dewangan 3692db3a90 regulator: max8973: add support to configure ETR from DT
The MAX8973/MAX77621 feature an Enhanced Transient Response(ETR)
circuit that is enabled through software. The enhanced transient
response reduces the voltage droop during large load steps by
temporarily allowing all three phases to fire in unison, slewing
total inductor current faster than would normally be possible if
all three phases continued to operate 120deg out of phase. The
enhanced transient response detector features two selectable
sensitivity settings, which select the output voltage slew rate
during load transients that triggers the ETR circuit. The sensitivity
of the ETR detector is set by the CKADV[1:0] bits in the CONTROL2
register.

Add support to configure the ETR through platform data from DT.
Update the DT binding document accordingly.

* Maxim MAX8973 Voltage Regulator
Required properties:
- compatible: must be one of following:
"maxim,max8973"
"maxim,max77621".
- reg: the i2c slave address of the regulator. It should be 0x1b.
Any standard regulator properties can be used to configure the single max8973
DCDC.
Optional properties:
-maxim,externally-enable: boolean, externally control the regulator output
enable/disable.
-maxim,enable-gpio: GPIO for enable control. If the valid GPIO is provided
then externally enable control will be considered.
-maxim,dvs-gpio: GPIO which is connected to DVS pin of device.
-maxim,dvs-default-state: Default state of GPIO during initialisation.
1 for HIGH and 0 for LOW.
-maxim,enable-remote-sense: boolean, enable reote sense.
-maxim,enable-falling-slew-rate: boolean, enable falling slew rate.
-maxim,enable-active-discharge: boolean: enable active discharge.
-maxim,enable-frequency-shift: boolean, enable 9% frequency shift.
-maxim,enable-bias-control: boolean, enable bias control. By enabling this
startup delay can be reduce to 20us from 220us.
-maxim,enable-etr: boolean, enable Enhanced Transient Response.
-maxim,enable-high-etr-sensitivity: boolean, Enhanced transient response
circuit is enabled and set for high sensitivity. If this
property is available then etr will be enable default.
Enhanced transient response (ETR) will affect the configuration of CKADV.
Example:
max8973@1b {
compatible = "maxim,max8973";
reg = <0x1b>;
regulator-min-microvolt = <935000>;
regulator-max-microvolt = <1200000>;
regulator-boot-on;
regulator-always-on;
};
