This Broadcom STB PCIe RC driver has one port and connects directly to one
device, be it a switch or an endpoint.  We want to be able to turn on/off
any regulators for that device.  Control of regulators is needed because of
the chicken-and-egg situation: although the regulator is "owned" by the
device and would be best handled by its driver, the device cannot be
discovered and probed unless its regulator is already turned on.
