TPS65217 has two versions A and B.
i.  TPS65217A - not supporting DVFS on AM335X
ii. TPS65217B - supports DVFS on AM335X

Right now I am supporting the version B but not A since I am testing DVFS on
AM335X.

I have BeagleBone with me having TPS65217B, but the CHIPID reads 0x70
(corresponds to TPS65217A)!
I am discussing with hardware folks on what to do about this, but for
now I will skip interpreting the CHIPID. I can print it out for reference
though.

Thanks
AnilKumar
