Subject: regulator: core: Reduce busy-wait looping
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5df529d440aa4f0e67be9af3718e7edf05db7d02;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

regulator: core: Reduce busy-wait looping

Keep busy-wait looping to a minimum while waiting for a regulator to
ramp-up to the target voltage. This follows the guidelines set forth
in Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt and assumes that regulators
are never enabled in atomic context.
