Thanks for the clarification. I've always wondered if an RFC should be 
seen as a separate series. Previously I've ended up just dropping the 
RFC and pumping up the version. This time the switch from RFC => non RFC 
was somewhat radical as a lot of the features were dropped. Furthermore, 
I've developed the 'simple' version (this non RFC one) and 
'experimental' version (the RFC one) in separate branches - which made 
the separation even stronger in my mind - I probably started thinking 
these as two different patch series.

But, as I said, thanks for the clarification! I guess it's still better 
to make next version v2 (and not v4) to not add even more confusion...

I think Krzysztof pointed out that the regulator-name property should 
not match the data-sheet but the board. If he had something to say about 
the node names, then I've missed his comment!

Thanks for pointing out I may have missed addressing some of his 
concerns. I though I fixed all issues he pointed to me but it may be I 
missed some - or accidentally dropped some change(s) when merging fixes 
from the 'experimental' branch to the 'simple'. I'll revise Krzysztof's 
feedback to the RFC before sending the next version!

Thanks!

Yours,
