No, don't do this - introducing special snowflake bindings just makes things more complex at the system level and tells everyone else that they too can have special snowflake bindings. Someone should be able to connect up the regulators based purely on a schematic. Just describe the hardware, it's just one extra line in the DT per regulator.
