Hi Dmitry,

I dug up the schematic and I see that the gpio's we are using in this
patch are actually "Enable Pins" to an external chip that provides vbus
to the peripherals connected. So from the perspective of SoC, it is a
GPIO and not to be represented as a regulator I believe.

Regards,
Krishna,
