Hi Doug,
Thanks for the comments

I will use generic names such as "P1.8V_LDO_OUT2" to avoid confusion.
The regulator core assumes that a dt enabled machine will have all
constraints defined
and for those that are not it disables them. So, you may see some
instances listed here
that are not present in the chrome os kernel tree,

Sure, I 'll change them all.

These are unused LDOs on the snow and need not be listed.

The default is 1.1V and the schematics I have shows 1.1V as well.
Looks like the one in
chrome os is incorrect.

Will fix as it is "ON" at boot.

Naming will be fixed.

BUCK8 is by default "OFF".
Will re-post on Tuesday.
