I'm lead to believe that this is also needed for QCA6174. I tried taking
the driver you wrote and changing regulators to match the ones used by QCA6174,
but I found that it gets probed after PCIe, which makes it get -EPROBE_DEFER
when it tries to attach to the power domain, which it doesn't handle it and
just proceeds to scan the bus and not find the chip as usual.
