backports: add support for voltage / current regulator drivers
This backports the latest regulator drivers for kernels >= 3.4.
We enable the regulator only on kernels >= 3.4 given that
it relies on the new probe deferral mechanism which would
otherwise mean having to support drivers that do not probe
correctly. Note that 3.2 had a base regulator implementation
but that was just stubs.
I did look into a way to upgrade the core kernel regulator
but given that it relies on late_initcall() and core_initcall()
we can't update this part of the kernel. I even looked at
using ksplice for this but it seems ksplice can't be used to
update init sections on the vmlinux ELF. I also haven't much
updates to these routines since 3.4 except for
86f5fcfc.
