I think DT change and code change go in different patches.

Can we have regulator-settling-time-us also so if it is there then
up/down same.
If up/down different then separate properties can be used.


Also in driver, if up/dn are not provided and only
regulator-settling-time-us is provided then up/dn can take value from
this property.
