This:

Is the same as, and will cause no more issues than:

quoted

static struct regulator_consumer_supply ab8500_vaux3_consumers[] = {
       REGULATOR_SUPPLY("vmmc", "sdi0"),
};

... because only nodes which we care about (dictated by compatible
declaration protections) will be parsed. So different platforms will
not affect each other.

What makes you say the two are equivalent?  The former is a reference
from a consumer device to a named regulator while the latter is a
reference from a regulator to a named consumer.
