BD718x7 has a HW 'feature' which leaves regulators with SEL-bit enabled (SW-control) disabled when transitioning from poweroff to SNVS state. In other words - if any critical regulator has been controlled by SW (enable/disable control) - it will stay OFF if we go to SNVS state. SNVS is usually a nice idea with i.MX8. So this change is required before we can enable SNVS as a state to go after reset. If SW control for crucial regulators is needed - then we must not use SNVS. Sorry. In default setup this means that all other regulators except buck3 and buck4 (GPU and VDU power) on BD71837 must not be controlled by SW. Buck 1 and 2 support DVS - Eg voltage can be changed when buck is enabled. So voltage change can be supported for those. As said - BD71837 buck 3 and 4 aren't crucial for boot so we can provide full control to those - if HW leaves them shut down after SNVS transition then linux can enable them again at boot.* *NOTE: bd718x7 driver is _not_ enabling/disabling buck3/buck4 in suspend/resume callbacks. If this is wanted we can implement it in this driver or leave it for driver which uses the regulator APIs and controls buck states for other power saving use-cases (galcore that is?).
