It is generally safer for the DT to be explicit about exactly
what the hardware is and then double check that this matches the
actual hardware, this gives more room for handling things with
quirks if needed in future and makes the life of people writing
DTs for boards easier since they don't need to remap part
numbers from the schematic to the DT.

It's still better to say what the supply is even if it can't be
changed - that stops you getting warnings about substituting in a
dummy regulator and allows the consumer to read the current state
of the regulator in case that's useful.
