There's two big problems here.  One is that we clearly shouldn't be
open coding this here but adding a function for it.  The other is that
this is going to break any existing device tree which has upper cased
supplies.  If we were going to do something here I'd go with case
insensitve matching though I'm not sure it's a real problem.
