It's named upon the A33 power pin - "VCC-DSI". 
If I remove "always-on" the board still will work, since dcdc1 is tied to 
mmc0. 
vmmc-supply = <&reg_dcdc1>;

We assume this voltage will be always present and there are some pullups that 
are tied to it (on i2c0 and i2c1 bus).  In this case should I remove "always-
on" from the regulator node?
