Ah, if it's fixed by the board that's exactly the sort of thing that
should be in DT - the DT describes the board so if some other system has
a different configuration then it will have a different DT.  With supply
properties you can just leave them missing in the DT, you're not
supposed to but so many systems do it that the framework will handle it.
Otherwise if you want to represent VSYS you can have a fixed voltage
regulator with no control and hook them up to it.
