Small note - driver supports[1] configuring following regulators by
using respective DT node names:

 - EN32KHz_AP
 - EN32KHz_CP
 - ENVICHG
 - ESAFEOUT1
 - ESAFEOUT2
 - CHARGER
 - CHARGER_CV
 - CHARGER_TOPOFF

I wonder if these should be mentioned in documentation too.

[1] These are used in e.g. mach-nuri.c

rdata->id will be equal to ARRAY_SIZE(regulators) when one adds DT node
name (below "regulators") which is different from what can be found in
regulators[] table.

On my test machine this results in hard lockup - possibly because
something tries to access regulators[ARRAY_SIZE(regulators)]
later on.

Following patch fixes this on my machine (using DTS with misspelled LDO1 for LDx1):
