Ok, that's what I wanted to know since I don't have a schematics of this board.
Maybe add a comment explaining why should be always-on for all regulators that
need it?

I see, as I mentioned I don't have a TM2 schematic, but the Exynos5433 SoC
manual doesn't refer the big and LITTLE cores as Eagle and King Fisher but
as Atlas and Apollo.
In any case, I think that makes sense to match what is in the schematic so
I agree with you to use whatever is there regardless if matches the manual
or not.
