We've got two competing approaches here.  For reg and interrupts, the
proposal on the table that we talked about at LPC is to do reg-names
and interrupts-names so as to preserve the existing semantics of the
reg and interrupts properties.  For gpios we're using the binding
"<name>-gpios" for named gpio references.  There isn't the same
pressure to preserve existing bindings in that case.  I'm okay with
either approach, providing that "-regulator" is encoded into the name.

I think I prefer the latter but I'm probably not too fussed.

I'd rather use something like -supply for these just on the basis that
you don't always connect things to regulators (for example, speaker
supplies are generally attached direct to the battery).
