Today generic coupler can't handle regulators coupling that is specific to NVIDIA Tegra SoC's, hence don't allow generic coupler to attach to those regulators. Later on it should be possible to switch at least Tegra20 to a generic coupler, once all prerequisite bits will get resolved in upstream (voltage management support by all drivers, etc).
