In the long term, this problem should go away of its own accord.  However,
in the short term, many systems are converting over to using device tree.
 Therefore, we are left with a situation currently where some regulator
consumer drivers are being probed via device tree and some are being
probed via board file devices within a single platform.

Is this a situation you are facing in your mainline kernel or internal
trees? What you explain would need you to work with hybrid board files
with some devices created through device tree and some others statically
from the board file in the kernel, and that approach was already shot
down as unacceptable.

As I understand, this is something being done on our internal kernel.
I don't think this really applies to the mainline kernel, since none
of these transitionary drivers are going into the upstream kernel
without being made to work with device tree.

Thanks,
David
