Using the driver for the internal regulator to also control
the clock frequency of blocks inside the codec is an
unexpected side-effect for a regulator, and also means that
the core clocks won't be changed as expected if an external
regulator is used to power the codec.

The clocking control is now handled by the core arizona MFD
driver so can be removed from the LDO1 driver.

I would expect this to be squashed into the first patch since otherwise
there's a bisection issue with both drivers trying to maintain the same
thing at the same time.

Whilst there are two things controlling it for a couple of
patches they both set the same value one after another, so it
should be safe. If it goes into the first patch nothing is
controlling the DVFS for a few patches so that actually creates a
bisection issue. It could be squashed into the second last patch
but this way feels cleaner?

Thanks,
Charles

Although looking at that again it can happily merge into the
second patch in the series so I will do that.

Thanks,

OK, or if you do want to leave them separate I'd suggest noting why it's
safe in the commit log.
