In order to prevent "git bisect" failures, don't you need to squash this
patch into patch 1/3, so that there is no point in git history where the
code expects the regulator-compatible property to exist, yet the .dtsi
file doesn't have it?

Or you could do this:

patch 1: add register-compatible property to db8500.dtsi
patch 2: adjust the code to use register-compatible property
patch 3: rename nodes in db8500.dtsi

but I'm not sure there's any advantage to having multiple patches
(except for patch statistics counters, but we certainly don't want to
have legitimate allegations of patch padding!)
