This doesn't seem like a particularly persuasive reason honestly and if
you're going to mess around with this stuff please fix it properly...

...the only reason for this array and the specification of the number of

...and indeed we wind up with a constant here anyway. At the very least
it'd be better to pull the parsing into the registration, right now we
have the code still laid out for platform data so it's hard to see it as
a win in cleanup terms. If we're not translating into platform data we
shouldn't need to keep this stuff around outside of the probe function.
What would be even better would be to convert to use the standard DT
parsing with regulators_node and of_match specified in the descriptor
and then delete most of this code entirely.
