[PATCH 07/11] regulator: allow user configuration of hardware protection action

When the core detects permanent regulator hardware failure or imminent
power failure of a critical supply, it will call hw_protection_shutdown
in an attempt to do a limited orderly shutdown followed by powering off
the system.
This doesn't work out well for many unattended embedded systems that don't
have support for shutdown and that power on automatically when power is
supplied:
- A brief power cycle gets detected by the driver
- The kernel powers down the system and SoC goes into shutdown mode
- Power is restored
- The system remains oblivious to the restored power
- System needs to be manually power cycled for a duration long enough
to drain the capacitors
Allow users to fix this by calling the newly introduced
hw_protection_trigger() instead: This way the hw_protection commandline
or sysfs parameter is used to dictate the policy of dealing with the
regulator fault.
