Looking up init data for regulators found on chips is a common operation
that can be handled in a generic way. The new helper function introduced
by this patch looks up the children of a given node by names specified
in a match table and fills that match table with information parsed from
the DT.
This is based on work by Rhyland Klein <rklein@nvidia.com>.

It's not always true that the device_node of regulator can be found
at dev->of_node at the time when of_get_regulator_init_data() is being
called, because in some cases the regulator nodes in device tree do
not have 'struct device' behind them until regulator_dev gets created
for it by core function regulator_register().
The patch adds device_node as a new parameter to
of_get_regulator_init_data(), so that caller can pass in the node of
regulator directly.

The helper routine is meant to be used by the regulator drivers
to extract the regulator_init_data structure from the data
that is passed from device tree.
'consumer_supplies' which is part of regulator_init_data is not extracted
as the regulator consumer mappings are passed through DT differently,
implemented in subsequent patches.
Similarly the regulator<-->parent/supply mapping is handled in
subsequent patches.
Also add documentation for regulator bindings to be used to pass
regulator_init_data struct information from device tree.
Some of the regulator properties which are linux and board specific,
are left out since its not clear if they can
be in someway embedded into the kernel or passed in from DT.
They will be revisited later.
