It's generally always going to be a problem to add generic names that
don't reflect the actual hardware names, you still end up needing to
define the mapping from the real names to the generic names that have
been define when you end up with the regulators being controllable.

Yes, the existing bindings need to be supported as a legacy/fallback
thing.
