Is the register layout compatible with SPMI regulators? The gpio node
seems to be fully compatible and the same driver probes there for SPMI
and i2c, so I wonder why we can't extend the existing SPMI gpio and
regulator bindings to have the new compatible strings for pm8008. Is
anything really different, or do we have the same device talking i2c
instead of SPMI now? Possibly it's exposing the different hardware
blocks inside the PMIC at different i2c addresses. It looks like the i2c
address is 0x8 and then there's 16-bits of address space inside the i2c
device to do things. 0x9 is the i2c address for the regulators and then
each ldo is at some offset in there?

I still fail to see what this part of the diff has to do with
regulators. Can it be split off to a different patch with a clear
description of why interrupt-controller and #interrupt-cells is no
longer required for qcom,pm8008?
It really looks like we're combining the binding for qcom,pm8008 and
qcom,pm8008-regulators at the same level, which looks wrong. We don't
want to describe the least common denominator between the two bindings.
Why not make two different bindings and files? One for the interrupty
gpio/interrupt controller device (at 0x8) and one for the regulator one
(at 0x9)?

For some i2c devices that appear on multiple i2c addresses we make an
i2c client for each address in the driver that attaches to the node we
put in DT. I suppose that won't work easily here. Either way, it would
make it much clearer if this existing binding was left alone. Is there
other functionality inside the i2c address 0x9 register space that isn't
regulators?
