Same story explained in patch V6 7/7.

Adding consumer for reg_fec in NOT available in this patch, as FEC driver itself
does NOT support setting IO voltage based on setting of dtb, so if want to add
consumer, need to patch FEC driver as well.

As I explained before, this reg is for adjusting IO voltage between 1.5V and 
1.8V,
and FEC driver can work on both of them, current FEC driver can work well no 
matter
if it is 1.5V or 1.8V, to avoid confusion, I think I can remove this reg_fec in 
this patch series,
let FEC driver work with default setting of this GPIO regulator, we can add 
reg_fec support
after FEC driver supports adjusting IO voltage. Thanks.

Anson.
