What about adding support for xceiver-supply as done in several other
drivers (ti_hecc.c, flexcan.c, mcp251x.c)? And using this for the stb line?
Looks like you had given this feedback a long time ago and I forgot
about it. Sorry about that :-)

But now that I think about it, its kinda weird that we are modelling
part of the transceiver as a separate child node
(Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/can/can-transceiver.txt) and the
other parts as a regulator.

Anyone looking at the transceiver node would figure thats where the
enable gpio/regulator node needs to go instead of the parent node.
Shouldn't we have all transceiver properties under the same node?

Thanks,
Faiz
