regulator_unregister(9)

💅 regulator_unregister(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie

Okay so quick vibe check: we're in the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is regulator_unregister(9). Buckle up 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

regulator_unregister — unregister a regulator 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void regulator_unregister (struct regulator_dev *rdev );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• rdev — the regulator you're unregistering, bestie. That's the one. 👑

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the tea: this is what regulator drivers call when they wanna unregister a regulator. That's it. That's the whole job. Not me being dramatic, it's literally the description. 🫶
