Every other PMIC calls this node regulators...

regulator-compatible is deprecated, use the node name instead.

Why is this bool and not tristate?

As covered in another subthread all this code looks like it should be
regmap-irq.

If this is not an error why is it printed as dev_err()?  It does look
like an error to me, though.

These sort of prints are just noise, remove this unless there is some
revision information you can display.  It's also better practice to
check that the device ID is actually what was expected in case there was
an error in the DT.

We have type information here but not in the OF ID table (not that we
ever look at it).
