WARN_ON is a Linux thing. Bindings are independent from Linux.

We already have 'regulator-name' which is something different, and 
*-names already has a defined usage as a companion to other properties 
('foo-names' goes with 'foos'). More on this below...

*-supply already has a type.

Do we really need to tune the timeout just for an error message?

-supply names are supposed to be named based on the consumer names (e.g. 
LDO1 regulator supplies vcc-supply). To avoid 'regulator-names' and 
simplifier the driver, I'd just define fixed, known names. Something 
like:

power1-supply
power2-supply
...
