[PATCH 1/3] regulator: don't cache vsel to ensure voltage setting

[Matti Vaittinen <mazziesaccount@gmail.com>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2035 bytes --]

Some PMICs treat the vsel_reg same as apply-bit. Eg, when voltage range
is changed, the new voltage setting is not taking effect until the vsel
register is written.

Force the vsel value to be written to hardware even if the old selector
was same as the new (but range changed) by using regmap_write_bits() and
not the regmap_update_bits().

I have a feeling this same thing should be done with the apply-bit
writes. I just wonder why no-one has reported problems with it. Maybe
all the hardware with the apply bit has 'self clearing' apply register
marked as volatile? Anyways, I'll leave it out of this patch because I
have no hardware to test the apply-bit stuff, and as I haven't seen any
problem reports about it.
