+Description:
+		Each regulator directory will contain a field called

+
+		This will be one of the following strings:
+
+		'enabled'
+		'disabled'
+		'unknown'
+
+		'enabled' means the regulator output is ON and is supplying
+		power to the system.
+
+		'disabled' means the regulator output is OFF and is not
+		supplying power to the system..
+
+		'unknown' means software cannot determine the state.
+
+		NOTE: this field can be used in conjunction with microvolts
+		and microamps to determine regulator output levels.
