Hello Mark, Graeme,

Taking in account that:
- there is no hardware to test twl6025, testing is not possible;
- there is no documentation for twl6025, and if there are any changes to 
twl6032 is not known;
- twl6032 is available, and in production, twl6025 is not even found on 
ti.com

So, what do you think, can this change be accepted?
