I'd expect listings for the specific chips too.

I just did'nt do that because we have just one driver for
all twl chips (twl4030/twl6030/twl6025) and there seems to be
no real need to identify specific chips while we could
do knowing just the chip family.


+	xyz-regulator: regulator@0 {
+		compatible = "regulator","ti,twl-reg";
+		ti,reg-id =<37>; /* TWL6030_REG_VAUX1_6030 */

These magic numbers are *very* Linux specific, we should have a better
way of specifying regulators - I'd off the top of my head expect that
the compatible property would identify the regulator.

The driver seems to use a per-regulator table, and it uses the above
id to indexed into it. I could probably do it with the compatible
property, but that would mean I have a compatible for *each* regulator
instance, like "ti,twl-reg-vaux1", "ti,twl-reg-vmmc" etc.
Does that sound reasonable?
