This series adds a regulator driver for the Resource Power Manager found in
Qualcomm 8660, 8960 and 8064 based devices.

The RPM driver exposes resources to its child devices, that can be accessed to
implement drivers for the regulators, clocks and bus frequency control that's
owned by the RPM in these devices.

Changes since v2:
  - Fix copy-paste error in dt binding
  - Correct incomplete move from mfd to soc
  - Correct const mistake in regulator driver

Changes since v1:
  - Moved rpm driver to drivers/soc

I'm not sure I follow the motivation for having this under drivers/soc?

In fact, my (possibly incorrect) understanding of this Resource Power
Manager is that it's actually to manage communication/control of
resources that are actually handled off the SoC by a microcontroller.

I added Paul W. to Cc so he can correct me, but I think this is a ways
off from the goal of what drivers/soc was for.
