Oops, I changed this from 1 to 0 _after_ running dt_binding_check, so
I'm totally to blame for this.

The description says:

    If there are no states in the "states" array, use a fixed regulator instead.

which I misinterpreted as "states can be empty", especially as the
driver does seem to support that?

I guess 1 is the proper minimum?

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
