The patch in this thread adds all the required regulators to the
DT file. However, it should also remove the special case so the 
regulators don't get registered twice, once from the board file
and once from DT. However, doing that would prevent regulators
getting registered at all, since v3.6-rc* don't have all the
required (TPS6586x) regulator (driver) patches to get the
regulators instantiated from DT. Everything will only work in
linux-next or sometime during the 3.7 merge window.  Hence, git
bisect would be broken.

One solution to this is to bring the regulator tree into the
Tegra tree as a dependency, and then apply a patch which adds the
regulators to DT, and removes the special case from the board
file. I'm asking for your OK to do that.

Why not just pull the patch in via the regulator tree?  The idea
of merging the entire regulator drivers branch into the Tegra tree
doesn't seem awesome...

I think that'd end up causing some annoying conflicts with other
changes that also touch arch/arm/match-tegra/board-dt-tegra20.c.
Perhaps they're manageable; they probably aren't that bad, but it
seems better to avoid them.
