Thanks for sending these! Is there a reason you didn't do the "else
if" change too?

Oops, sorry, looks like i didn't scroll all the way down.
Sending a v2 shortly.

What part of it doesn't make sense, exactly? Basically there's an
external regulator (voltage rail) that can be programmed to a range of
voltages. For simplicity, let's assume 1.7, 1.8, and 1.9 V. That
regulator powers several things on the board / SoC. The places where
the rail is hooked up can function over some range of voltages. Maybe
some of the things it's hooked up with function fine between 1.6V and
1.9 V. Some between 1.6V and 1.8V. Some between 1.8V and 1.9V. For
power savings we generally want the voltage rail to be as low as
possible.

In this case, the efuse hardware (and everything else the rail is
hooked up to) work fine with a lower voltage, except when you're
programming the efuse. When the efuse needs to be programmed then it
needs a higher voltage. Thus, normally, the system is allowed to run
this rail at some lower voltage. Maybe 1.7V. When we want to program,
though, we've got to run it at 1.8V (or something higher on a new
SoC).

In general it's up to the board-level regulator constraints to keep
everything happy. The person designing the board should setup a
minimum and maximum voltage for each rail to make sure that no
components are run at too high of a voltage or too low of a voltage.
Presumably those board-level constraints take into account the voltage
level needed to read the efuse and also take into account the maximum
voltage so we don't damage the efuse.

max--regulator

I think that should be something like:

	Hardware requires a minimum voltage for fuse blowing.
	This may be a shared rail so don't specify a maximum.
	Regulator constraints will handle (what exactly, it?)
