[PATCH v3 1/2] regulator: pwm: Add support for a fixed delay after duty cycle changes

From: Matthias Kaehlcke <mka at chromium.org>

A change of the duty cycle doesn't necessarily cause an immediate switch
to the target voltage.  On many PWM regulators there is a fixed "settle
time" (irrespective of the jump size) that we need to wait after an
upward jump.  This change introduces the device tree property
"settle-time-up-us" which allows us to specify a fixed delay after a
voltage increase.

We don't add an option of a fixed delay on the way down for now because
the way down is probably modelled best with a ramp rate, not a fixed
delay.
