The regulator framework has REGULATOR_EVENT_OVER_CURRENT already. 
Perhaps this could be of some use? For example you could extend the 
existing gpio-regulator driver with an optional overcurrent gpio pin.

See the suggestion above about extending the gpio-regulator driver.

Thanks for the link. Too bad it seems nothing ever became of this. I 
guess it will be up to me to bring up the discussion again if I really 
want it.
