+     <para>
+       When requesting regulators consumers use symbolic names for their

+     <para>
+	A stub version of this API is provided when the regulator

+
+     <sect1 id="consumer-enable">
+       <title>Enabling and disabling</title>
+       <para>
+         The regulator API provides reference counted enabling and

+	 linkend='API-regulator-enable'>regulator_enable</link></function>
+	 and <function><link
+	 linkend='API-regulator-disable'>regulator_disable</link>
+	 </function> functions to enable and disable regulators.  Calls

+       </para>
+       <para>
+         Note that since multiple consumers may be using a regulator and
+	 machine constraints may not allow the regulator to be disabled
+	 there is no guarantee that calling
+	 <function>regulator_disable</function> will actually cause the
+	 supply provided by the regulator to be disabled. Consumer
+	 drivers should assume that the regulator may be enabled at all
+	 times.

+
+     <sect1 id="consumer-config">
+       <title>Configuration</title>
+       <para>
+         Some consumer devices may need to be able to dynamically
+	 configure their supplies.  For example, MMC drivers may need to
+	 select the correct operating voltage for their cards.  This may

+	 </function> functions provide the primary interface for this.
+	 Both take ranges of voltages and currents, supporting drivers
+	 that do not require a specific value (eg, CPU frequency scaling
+	 normally permits the CPU to use a wider range of supply
+	 voltages at lower frequencies but does not require that the
+	 supply voltage be lowered).  Where an exact value is required
+	 both minimum and maximum values should be identical.
