Here, wanted to say that although we enable it but it will not work. The 
functionality depends on the above patch.

I had detailed discussion with Mark on  this support and as per him 
(based on my understanding), the input to different regulator is from 
the pin of the chips and so the name should be the <pin-name>-supply 
which should be part of chip-dt binding, not to the particular rail.
