This series marks tps659413's regulators as bootph-all in order for

This in turn is desired since the tps659413 needs its MCU ESM
state machine setup in order for the watchdog to reset the board.

This took me a little while to track down, as enabling the ESM, TPS6594,
etc in u-boot would result in the below boot failure:

U-Boot SPL 2024.10-rc4-00007-g44b12cbcd1b3-dirty (Sep 06 2024 - 14:25:52 -0500)
SYSFW ABI: 3.1 (firmware rev 0x0009 '9.2.4--v09.02.04 (Kool Koala)')
Initialized 4 DRAM controllers
SPL initial stack usage: 13408 bytes
### ERROR ### Please RESET the board ###

Which turns out to actually have failed far earlier in spl_early_init(),
due to these nodes not being accessible in u-boot. That's hard to tell
though since console isn't setup until later (and for that reason I
think spl_early_init()'s return value in j784s4_init.c isn't
evaluated since a panic() at that point would leave a user with *no*
information at all).

I've tested this in conjunction with a u-boot series which I'll link in
a follow-up response on the k3-j784s4-evm. I'd appreciate someone testing
on the k3-am69-sk at a minimum, as it should suffer the same fate if things
aren't setup appropriately.

Changes in v3:
- Added Udit's Tested-by tags
- Reordered bootph-all to align with dts-coding-style (Beleswar)


Thanks for the change, LGTM. For the series,

Changes in v2:
- Only mark the regulator nodes as bootph-all since parents are implied
