Some MMC regulator doesn't fit that description. > It's named upon the A33 power pin - "VCC-DSI". If I remove "always-on" the board still will work, since dcdc1 is tied to mmc0. vmmc-supply = <®_dcdc1>; We assume this voltage will be always present and there are some pullups that are tied to it (on i2c0 and i2c1 bus). In this case should I remove "always- on" from the regulator node? > Maxime Best regards, Stefan Mavrodiev -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
