There are two i2c devices. One is pm8008 at i2c address 0x8 and one is pm8008-regulators at i2c address 0x9. Earlier revisions of this patch series were making it very confusing by redoing the pm8008 binding and adding the pm8008-regulator i2c address device to the same binding and driver. My guess is that this is one IC that responds to multiple i2c addresses. The "main" qcom,pm8008 address is 0x8 and that supports things like interrupts. Then there's an address for regulators at 0x9 which controls the handful of LDOs on the PMIC.
