Hmm. That seems wrong. I thought I had seen at least some regulator
bindings where these nodes included a name property so that the nodes
didn't need any particular name.

Olof, what are your thoughts here - do we need to fix the code so the
node names aren't relevant? IIRC, we have had to change some other
bindings due to the same issue.

I guess if these regulators are enabled at boot and always on, we don't
even need the labels for now; we could add labels later as/when drivers
begin to dynamically control the regulators.
