regulator is named by numbering on sysfs, e.g. regulator.0, regulator.1
it confuses to find desired regulator before counting the order.
add option for regulator name by use_name_onsysfs.
if it is true and name is not NULL, desc's name will be the name.
e.g. if name in desc is "LDO0", then regulator.LDO0 on sysfs.
otherwise it follows origin.
