I'd still like to see how this can be extended to handle BT power up,
having a single entity driving both of the BT and WiFI.

The device tree changes behave in exactly the opposite way: they
define regulators for the WiFi device, while the WiFi is not being
powered by these regulators. Both WiFi and BT are powered by the PMU,
which in turn consumes all specified regulators.
