Add a driver for the FP9931/JD9930 regulator. Implement handling of the PG (power good), TS_EN (temperature sensor enable), and EN (enable regulators) pins. Implement the pair of symmetric LDOs as a single regulator because they share a single voltage set register. For simplicity, just add the temperature sensor (depending on external NTC) directly. Limitations: - As these regulators are controlled together with the VCOM regulator via the EN pin, some kind of management must be in place. As the enable op is not called when the regulator is already enabled, simple refcounting seems not to work to avoid clearing EN when one regulator is still enabled. As these regulators are typically used together, this limitation should not hurt hard, just provide the is_enabled op. - As the VCOM step is quite odd (5V/255 steps), rounding is needed. Due to some limitations in the regulator core, the max/min voltages in the devicetree must match the idea of the driver how to round things exactly. - Night mode is not implemented, so only the FP9931 compatible is needed in the driver, there is no REGULATOR_MODE_NIGHT and no clear definition in the datasheet what it does, also the XON pin which seems to be an input related to that night mode is not used.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
