No, it's not trying to find a regulator named "sram", but any regulator that
*contains* the "sram" string in its name, but checks only regulators that are
coupled to others. This is the same for the "Vgpu" / "vgpu".

Example:

Regulator A, coupled to Regulator B.

Regulator A name = "Vgpu" or "vgpu", or *vgpu*, or *Vgpu*
(name must contain either Vgpu or vgpu)

Regulator B name = "vsram" or "sram_gpu" or *sram*
(name must contain "sram").

mrc->vsram_rdev = rdev

rdev == our Regulator B.

We hence return 0 to the coupling API: this will produce the effect of making
it use this driver's .balance_voltage() callback instead of the generic one
on vgpu<->vsram.

That's the right branch.

Let's take MT8192 Asurada as an example of how this works....

`mt6359_vsram_others_ldo_reg´ is the SRAM regulator for the GPU:
https://gitlab.collabora.com/google/chromeos-kernel/-/blob/mt8195-tracking-master-rolling/arch/arm64/boot/dts/mediatek/mt8192-asurada.dtsi#L551

`mt6359_vsram_others_ldo_reg` regulator-name = "vsram_others";
^^^^
Contains "sram", and this regulator is also

regulator-coupled-with = <&mt6315_7_vbuck1>;

`mt6315_7_vbuck1` regulator-name = "Vgpu";
^^^^
Contains "Vgpu", and this regulator is also

regulator-coupled-with = <&mt6359_vsram_others_ldo_reg>;

That's how the coupling works in this case.


Now, looking at case exclusions:
In MT8192 Asurada (or, actually, mt6359.dtsi) we have other regulators that do
actually contain "sram" in their name, like "vsram_proc1" and "vsram_others_sshub".

These regulators will be ignored, as they are *not* coupled with Vgpu.


What this driver currently does in this regard is:
1. Regulator attach is called only on *coupled* regulators, not on the others
2. If the regulator contains name "vgpu" or "Vgpu" or "sram" we're good,
otherwise we don't attach the balance_voltage logic of this driver to
the unmatched regulators.


Does this explanation clarify your doubts?

Regards,
Angelo
