This syntax is really painful - we're relying on keeping two arrays in
sync which isn't good for legibility or robustness.  I'd expect
something like having a property with the supply name referencing the
regulator node concerned like:

	dbvdd = <&regulator1>;
	dcvdd = <&regulator2>;

or something.  Keeping the two arrays separate doesn't seem great.
