AM335x EVM have one dedicated input supply which provide supplies to all
the PMIC regulators. According to tps65910 "VDD1 regulator" input supply
is from vcc1 so we have to create a dummy/parent/some node to handle this.
Example below has the details.
Your device tree should accurately reflect the hardware.

Similarly we have to add 7 more fixed regulators entries to provide input
supply to different PMIC regulators.
If you have all these unrelated supplies in the system then your device
tree should accurately reflect that.  However this would be a very

unusual hardware design.  Usually there would be a very small set of
system supply rails, frequently only one.
In case of AM335X-EVM one dedicated supply (5v) feeding to all the input
supplies (vcc1-7 and vccio) of the regulators.

tps65910 PMIC have vcc1-7 and vccio input supplies which are feeding to
all the regulators. (like one - one and one - many).

Tps65910 regulator drivers registration fails if we not providing the
correct input supply with supply name. One option I can see is that
fixed voltage regulators. If we do this then total 21 (8 input supply
fixed regulators and others are out regulators) are present in the system.

If this is the correct approach then I will submit next version of patch.

Thanks
