This adds the _interruptible suffix to the AB3100 accessor

Since these accesses are slow on a 100kHz I2C bus and may line
up waiting for the mutex, we need to handle interruption by
system shutdown or kill signals and may just as well denote that
in the function names.

- High performance analogue LDOs supporting voltages from 1-3.5V
- Very low power consumption LDOs intended to support always on

This patch adds support for all three kinds of LDO. Each regulator

The WM831x includes an interrupt controller managing interrupts for
the various functions on the chip. This patch adds support for the
core interrupt block on the device.
Ideally this would be supported by genirq, particularly for the
GPIOs, but currently genirq is unable to cope with controllers on
interrupt driven buses so we cut'n'paste the generic interface.
Once genirq is able to cope chips like this it should be a case
of filing the prefixes off the code and redoing wm831x-irq.c to
move over.

Provide basic support for MFDs having multiple cells of a given

As it stands this approach requires that MFDs using this feature
deal with ensuring that there aren't any ID collisions resulting
from multiple MFDs of the same type being instantiated. This needs
to happen with the existing code too, but with this approach there
is a knock on effect on the IDs for non-duplicated devices.
