Yeah, all regulators (they are just USB load/overload switches) are 
powered from VCC_SYS, there aren't that many power rails on the ROCK64.

The alternative to my first patch would essentially be this:

--- a/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3328-rock64.dts
+++ b/arch/arm64/boot/dts/rockchip/rk3328-rock64.dts
@@ -48,11 +48,18 @@ vcc_host_5v: vcc-host-5v-regulator {
                vin-supply = <&vcc_sys>;
        };

-       vcc_host1_5v: vcc_otg_5v: vcc-host1-5v-regulator {
+       vcc_host1_5v: vcc-host1-5v-regulator {
+               compatible = "regulator-fixed";
+               gpio = <&gpio0 RK_PA2 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;

                compatible = "regulator-fixed";
                gpio = <&gpio0 RK_PA2 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;

-               pinctrl-0 = <&usb20_host_drv>;
                regulator-name = "vcc_host1_5v";
                regulator-always-on;
                regulator-boot-on;

This drops the pinctrl from all but the first regulator (which is a bit 
weird, the first one is not really special) and then describes three 
separate regulators driven by PA2.

I have no real preference, the one-regulator solution has the downside 
of not accurately describing the three separate load switches, the 
three-regulator solution has the downside of the pinctrl definitions 
being weird.

Lorenz
