Roger, if that helps, without changing any other binding, on 8183,
basically you could have:
 - svs-cpu-little: Add a handle to &cpu0 and get the regulator/opp
table from it.
 - svs-cpu-big: Handle to &cpu4
 - svs-cci: Handle to &cci
 - svs-gpu: Handle to &gpu (BTW, it is expected that SVS would only
apply to vgpu/mali regulator, and not vsram regulator?)

I'm not too sure how we'd fetch the right regulator name, however (for
the first 3 the name is "proc", for the last one it's "mali"), maybe
add a regulator-name list in the DT?
