Please don't send new patches in reply to old threads, it makes it hard
to keep track of what is going on.

This is part of the generic regulator binding and since it's for board
specific usage it should not be constrained by the chip binding.

How is VSELECT used without a binding specifying some mechanism for
control?

Instead of implementing a custom property this should use the already
existing properties for current limits, this is a common thing for
hardware to have so we shouldn't have custom bindings. We'll need to
relax the check the code currently has for a non-zero minimum limit but
otherwise everything should already be there.
