The "mediatek,mt8183-mali" compatible uses platform data that calls for
getting (and managing) two regulators ("mali" and "sram") but devfreq
does not support this usecase, resulting in DVFS not working.
Since a lot of MediaTek SoCs need to set the voltages for the GPU SRAM
regulator in a specific relation to the GPU VCORE regulator, a MediaTek
SoC specific driver was introduced to automatically satisfy, through
coupling, these constraints: this means that there is at all no need to
manage both regulators in panfrost but to otherwise just manage the main
"mali" (-> gpu vcore) regulator instead.
Keeping in mind that we cannot break the ABI, the most sensible route
(avoiding hacks and uselessly overcomplicated code) to get a MT8183
node with one power supply was to add a new "mediatek,mt8183b-mali"
compatible, which effectively deprecates the former.
