Rob asked you - "Is there more than 1 instance in a PMIC?" - and you did
not answer positively, just mentioned something about drivers in
downstream, which do not matter. So is the answer for that question:
yes, you have two instances of the same PMIC differing by presence of
PBS and other features"?
