Hi everyone,

This series describes regulators supplying the VccT and VccR pins of an SFP
cage or soldered-down transceiver.

These regulators can then be turned on only when the SFP device is probed,
thus saving power on systems which only load SFP cage support at certain
times, or load SFP device descriptions via device tree overlays.

Please let me know what you think.

As ever, I don't want to be adding support for stuff into mainline
which doesn't ever get used - historically, we've had a lot of that.
So, any patch set which adds some kind of facility like this needs to
be accompanied by a user of it.

This is especially true in this case, because I want to see why you're
wanting to have two regulators, when INF-8074 suggests that both VccT
and VccR should be derived from the same supply. The reason the
modules have separate supplies for the transmitter and receiver is
because the host side has the supply filtering networks to ensure
cross-talk between each is kept to a minimum.

FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
