That sounds a bit odd. How many interrupts might there be? What do they
signal?

Why not just say that the regulators node contains regulators in the
usual format, with reference to the regulator binding?

It would probably be better to have a heading like "Properties for BUCK
regulator nodes" for all of the above.

As mentioned above, state this at the beginning and point to the
regulator bindings.

So these are what the nodes should be called? (rather than values for
regulator-name).

Otherwise this looks ok to me.

Thanks,
