To derefer this in the regulator driver, we need to have the pm8008_data 
struct definition in the qcom_pm8008 header file.

I think it doesn't look great to have only that structure in header and 
all other structs and enum in the mfd driver.

No, It is being called twice. To avoid repetitive code, I've added this 
subroutine.
