On some Soc's RTC is powered by an external power regulator.
e.g. RTC on DRA7 SoC. Make the OMAP RTC driver support a
power regulator.

Also could you move the regulator allocation before this
platform_set_drvdata when resending? It's not required, but that call
sort of separates the allocations from the device initialisation
currently.

SoC ? -> could you rephrase this to indicate "certain SoCs such as
DRA7, RTC is an independent voltage domain of it's own and on
platforms such as DRA7-evm, this may be supplied by individual
regulator on it's own.

Question ofcourse is what voltage would you like that regulator to be
at? As you are aware, certain LDOs and SMPS can drive varying voltage
and just enable/disable would do just the default voltage of the
SMPS/LDO, right? OR am i missing something here?

"phandle to supply regulator" ? since it is optional, "if needed" is
redundant?

would be nice to print the result as well - since it helps debug from
log a little easier.

just pass the correct voltage through DTS as we do for all other
regulators ? It's only tricky when we have a range of acceptable
voltages but for RTC, IIRC, it's always a set voltage (1.0V or 1.8V).

you mean min=max=1.8V board constraint - sure it will work, except I
might expect to see that in the example? OR expect the driver to
explicitly set it.

Yes I agree that enable/disable would just do the default voltage of SMPS/LDO.
If default voltage needs to be changed, driver should explicitly call regulator_set_voltage.
Currently this is missing. Ill update and repost it. Thanks for pointing it out.
