Of the PMICs that support multi-phased regulators, all but one just
support a dual-phase setup, with exactly two regulators tied together.
This allows for a simple data model, since just two is somewhat of a
special case.
However there is the AXP806, which supports a triple-phase setup, that is
also used on at least one board: the Cubieboard 4, where DCDC-A+B+C
together supply the Cortex-A15 CPU cluster.
Since this is just one case, and a fairly old one now, let's not boil
the ocean by coming up with a complex data structure that allows
describing arbitrary combinations, but instead handle this as a special
case. This is supported by the fact, that the AXP806 only supports two
specific setups: DCDC-A+B or DCDC-A+B+C, but nothing else.
Add a function that checks for the regulators on this PMIC, and handle
the two cases, plus the one without any poly-phasing.
