This isn't the general view for the regualtor API - we generally
want all regulators to be registered in order to allow us to see
what's going on with things even if we've not figured them out from
software.

Oh, I said the above specifically because when I added the LDO
configuration for the regulators that weren't used to the Tegra .dts
files, you told me to remove it, based on the comment I put in there
that they weren't used on the board.
The board shouldn't have to define the regulators, the regulator driver
really ought to be able to figure out that they're there by itself if
there's no configuration based purely on knowing which chip is there.
From that point of view it's OK for the chip .dtsi to have them (though
ideally the driver wouldn't *need* that either) which was what was
happening here.
So I assume no changes needed here then?

Tony
