Hello Andreas,

Thanks a lot for your feedback.

Yes, another typo. I'll fix it on the next series as well.

Ok, I'll change this to regulator-name. It is a symbolic name to refer to the
regulator node name anyways since now that the regulator-compatible property is
deprecated, the regulator node name is used for matching. So the list of valid
regulator node names is properly defined below:

Ups, since it was documentation and not the DTS I completely missed that. Thanks
for pointing out!
