This adds an optional regulator to the pwm-beeper device. This regulator
acts as an amplifier. The amplifier is only enabled while beeping in order
to reduce power consumption.

Tested on LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3, which has a speaker connected to PWM through
an amplifier.

If you do not use optional regulator then you will not have to check if
you have it or not everywhere: regulator core will give you a dummy that
you can toggle to your heart's content.

Some months ago, I learned that if you are not using device tree and you 
do not call regulator_has_full_constraints(), then you do not get a 
dummy regulator. And here, we are only checking if the regulator exists 
in one place. We will still need the checks for beeper->reg_enabled to 
keep calls to regulator_enable() and regulator_disable() balanced.

On the other hand, it is recommended that you always call 
regulator_has_full_constraints(), so I don't mind changing it if that is 
what you think we should do. But, I don't really see much of an 
advantage to changing it compared to the current implementation.

Why? You do not have checks for calls to pwm_enable() and pwm_disable(),
(or rather beeper->period is used as such flag) why regulator would be
any different?

It greatly simplifies control flow in the driver (since I believe you
can get rid of the flags you introduced).

As far as arch not having full constraints - I am not sure if this makes
sense anymore. I am not quite sure what the original intent here was, we
should probably ask Mark Brown. But a lot of drivers do expect the dummy
substitution to imply work.

Thanks.

regulator_enable() has a __must_check attribute on it, so we get 
compiler warnings if we do not check the return value. Also, if enabling 
the regulator fails and returns an error, then calling 
regulator_disable() later would cause an imbalance.

pwm_enable() and pwm_disable() work differently because they don't count 
how many times they have been called. regulator_enable() and 
regulator_disable(), on the other hand, work like reference counting.

I am OK with using the dummy regulator, but I don't see how I can get 
rid of the beeper->reg_enabled flag.

Ah, you are right, but it is more than that. It is possible to receive
multiple SND_BELL/SND_TONE events with non-0 value. You need to check if
regulator is already enabled before trying to enable it second time, or
your counting will be off.

Thanks.
