Are you sure this is safe and correct for all boards (with most
regulator designs I'd expect it to be dictated by passive choice)?

These names should all be removed, they're vanishingly unlikely to
reflect the schematic supply name (which is what the property is there
for) and this should either be the same as the regulator API comes up
with by default or override any better naming it manages to provide.

If there's no control this should be redundant.

Are you *sure* this voltage is the one used on all boards?  If it's the
physically fixed output voltage then it shouldn't be in the constraints
at all and the driver should just know.
