Hello,

The following patch slightly extends the semantic of
regulator_set_voltage() so that it takes into account the voltage
requirements of all consumers connected to that regulator. This change
would allow the OMAP ARM architecture to use the regulator framework
more aggressively: we have multiple devices connected to a single
regulator, and the voltage needs to be set to the minimum voltage
acceptable by all consumers.

Thanks,

Thomas
