Hi,
I added this API in downstream for the purpose of finding whether rail
output can be changed or not(fixed) based on constraints.
If min and max is same then it can not change. I used this information
to set the pad voltage of SOC automatically.

I dont know other usage when I added this API. May be Peter is needed here.
