Just add it in consecutive patch in this series. You added here some
providers (clock and regulators) without consumers. This of course
looks good as a way of providing full description of the board but:
1. For regulators always on: may be meaningless for kernel. Kernel
does not use it. Existence of regulator subnode will fulfill driver's
needs for probe.
2. For clocks: actually will disable these clocks because of lack of
consumers... which is fine but probably not what you wanted.
The standard approach is to add such providers when they are needed -
there are some consumers using them.

Okay, just pointing the difference. I cannot verify them.

That is not a problem. Please send a patch changing the defconfig.
Usually defconfig (for armv7 this would be exynos and multi_v7) should
provide bootable and working environment for all of our supported
boards.

Actually as a verification I think even adding simple node
"regulators" is sufficient - driver will add all regulators anyway.
However seeing all regulators described for particular board is
good... but lack of consumers is disturbing because this may mean that
it was not really fully modeled.
>From my point of view - all of regulators in DT are welcomed but at
least some of them should have a consumer. This means that someone
took care and looked at the relationships between them.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
