It looks mostly good, but I have a couple of comments though, see below.

So it doesn't power the CPU through one of the AXP regulators?
Interesting design.

The last part of the label should be the function.

I'd really prefer it to be modelled properly, and not attached to the
wrong device.

I have some work pending to allow multiple regulators in the same
property, but that won't be ready soon.

For the time being, I would suggest having two usb1 regulators
defined, each with their respective GPIOs, and one set to always on
(and keep that great comment).

Thanks,
Maxime
