As Sebastian said, it would be nice if instead of magic numbers +
comments, we have defines for the modes by moving the definitions from
include/linux/i2c/twl.h to include/dt-bindings/regulator/ so they can
be used by DTS.

But that can be done as a follow-up though, to avoid adding a
dependency between the regulator and arm-soc subsystems to get this
fix applied.
