Okay, that makes sense, I agree.

...but.

The datasheet never mentions 0.3V as vmin - infact, it does mention that the
vsel is selected as (0V +) 6250 * Vsel, but the brief spec says that for the
standard configuration (in terms of HW), the Vmin is 0.4V and not 0.3.

Reading through makes me think that it's not much about the buck providing an
unstable output, but more about it starting to become inefficient under that
value.

This means that it is sensible to set, instead:

	regulator-min-microvolt = <400000>;

Also, this is repeated on multiple platforms: can you please perform the same
change also on MT8183, MT8186 and MT8195?

P.S.: For MT6358, the Vmin for VGPU is 0.5V :-)

Cheers,
Angelo
