Hmm OK great, I'll take a look. Looks like that might also provide a
nice solution for handling the 32k clock from palmas to the wl12xx.

In the wl12xx case it's a real regulator on wl12xx though, not a fake.
It gets the power directly from VBAT and generates it's own clocks..
Of course nobody knows what the chip is actually doing with the GPIO
pin, it's probably just a hint to some wl12xx internal state machine.
