   5 Description:
   6                 Some regulator directories will contain a field called
   7                 state. This reports the regulator enable status, for
   8                 regulators which can report that value.
   9
  10                 This will be one of the following strings:
  11
  12                 'enabled'
  13                 'disabled'
  14                 'unknown'
  15
  16                 'enabled' means the regulator output is ON and is supplying
  17                 power to the system.
  18
  19                 'disabled' means the regulator output is OFF and is not
  20                 supplying power to the system..
  21
  22                 'unknown' means software cannot determine the state, or
  23                 the reported state is invalid.
  24
  25                 NOTE: this field can be used in conjunction with microvolts
  26                 and microamps to determine regulator output levels.

  38
  39                 'voltage'
  40                 'current'
  41                 'unknown'
  42
  43                 'voltage' means the regulator output voltage can be controlled
  44                 by software.
  45
  46                 'current' means the regulator output current limit can be
  47                 controlled by software.
  48
