OK.  This ramp rate thing is a general issue for regulators, especially
those that are controlled via GPIOs rather than I2C since for them the
control interface takes approximately zero time to respond.  Ideally we
want to do something slightly more involved than what you've got here
since if you're turning on more than one regulator at once it'd be nice
to be able to allow all the supplies to ramp in parallel rather than
serialising everything.

I've got a patch half done for this which I should try to finish off and
post soon but for now this should be OK.
