OK, looks like the LCD panel is also using V28 from vaux1. It
goes to the "Main flex connector" pin 26.

It also seems that other devices are also using V28 like
accelerometer, main camera cover switch, usd card hot-swap
detection sensor, tvout analog switch, fm transmitter.. And
it's marked as regulator-always-on because of battery cover
switch.

So I'll just send a patch to disable the twl configuration
for n900 for now as anything else would be quite intrusive. I'll
look into it more later on once I have access to my n900.

OK thanks. I bet I was doing testing on omap2plus_defconfig
only that does not even have the LCD enabled.
