cover pmic:pfuze support buck regulator mode switch

This patch set is to support buck regulator can working in different switching modes.

To improve system efficiency the buck regulators can operate in different switching modes.

patch 1/3 is to add related bit definitions and registers. patch 2/3 is to implement the switching mode init function. patch 3/3 is to add related mode init function in board code.

mx6slevk board is not included in this patch set, since power and i2c interface are not implemented for it. Future patch will cover this to add PAD setting, power_init_board and etc.

Peng Fan (3):
pmic:pfuz100 add switch mode and more registers
pmic:pfuze implement pmic_mode_init
imx:mx6 set normal APS and standby PFM mode

In this function, you set the same operating mode to the all switching regulators, so this will be done for the all boards which will use this pmic call.
I assume that this is what you want, if not, then maybe adding the regulator number as an argument, could make it more flexible, for the other configurations.
So what do you think about this?

This is a good suggestion that configure each regulator with it's own requirement. I'll add a new function pfuze_regulator_mode_set to set each regulator's mode according input parameter, and also keep pfuze_mode_init to configure all regulators. I'll sent out v2 patch soon.
