There is a pin on these processors named "TA_PROG_SFP". The supply here should
be for whatever regulator supplies that pin. So it could be a fixed-regulator
or perhaps a sub-node of the board's FPGA (no such node exists yet, but it
certainly could). There's a pattern property under
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/regulator.yaml for these sorts
of nodes.
