Add a binding for the regulator which controls the OTG chargepath switch. The OTG switch gets its power from pm8941_5vs1, and that should be expressed as a usb-otg-in-supply property in the DT node for the charger driver. The regulator name is "otg".

The regulator name is "otg", defined by the DT node name. The code requires that the DT node name be "otg", and defines a regulator with the same name. As far as I know, you have to define a DT label for the node, in order to reference this regulator with a phandle. Is that what you are referring to? I usually use "chg_otg" as the label. Are you asking that this be reflected in the example?
You need a regulator-name property. Also, should should define valid values for regulator-min-microvolt and regulator-max-microvolt. Thinking about this some more, the node name should be generic, so just "regulator". The label does not need to be generic. Rob
