From 0545b17b695e03ad5ea7bd9736b9cdfc49530af5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Harvey Date: Fri, 11 Jun 2021 12:46:24 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] imx: ventana: put LTC3676 regulators in continuous mode In the default pulse-skipping mode regulators that are very lightly loaded can fail to regulate properly. Switching them to always use continuous mode causes only around 10mW of overall system power difference in a lightly loaded system that isn't already operating them in continuous mode.
