If you don't know what to do with the regulators and don't have any information on what's safe then you shouldn't be specifying a voltage at all. > While testing the latest revision of your code I also noticed that the > kernel ends up disabling LDO3 and LDO4, which could be fine on some > boards and a problem on other boards. > I think we need to be careful here.

You need to at least specify that regulators that need to be kept on are always-on. > For the others, for the boards where we've schematics (*) it would be > good to add the other regulators with fixed voltages as specified in > the schematics.

If everyone has been running the board at a voltage different to that in the schematic then I'd not assume that everything has been validated at the voltage in the schematic, if production firmware is available that's going to be a more reliable guide than the schematic but it sounds like all these boards have just been left to run at their default voltages.
