Literature code is the best one. Adding, along with it, a human
readable "TWL4030 ES3.1 DM rev L"
is even better :)

no strong opinions on this - thinking from OMAP perspective, I read
vdd_mpu,core,iva. from TWL perspective,
4030/5030 - VDD1,2
6030: VCORE1,2,3
6032: SMPS1...5
so I guess it is fine as long as it is in context.
