But that means that for a board where we don't know (don't want to know)
if we have a 2.x or 3.x device we need to set:

  regulator-min-microvolt = <2.4V>
  regulator-max-microvolt = <3.6V>

And the 2.5V and the two ranges should be hard coded into the ufshcd (in
particular if they come from the specification).

For devices with only 2.x or 3.x devices, regulator-{min,max}-microvolt
should be adjusted accordingly.

Note that driving the regulators outside these ranges will either damage
the hardware or cause it to misbehave, so these values should be defined
in the board.dts anyways.

Also note that regulator_set_voltage(2.4V, 3.6V) won't give you "a
voltage between 2.4V and 3.6V, it will most likely give either 2.4V or
any more specific voltage that we've specified in the board file because
the regulator happens to be shared with some other consumer and changing
it in runtime would be bad.
