This isn't good. We're effectively sharing the same I/O memory between
two devices. Let's avoid that if possible.

It would seem to me that this DFLL PWM device isn't really a proper PWM
controller in the sense supported by the PWM framework. As such it might
be easier to have the nvidia,tegra210-dfll compatible device expose a
regulator directly rather than go via a "fake" PWM device and a
PWM-based regulator on top of that.
