All initcall for all the regulator drivers that feed this gpc power domain.

Good point. That's why I was asking for your help :) -- you have more
context on these hardware.

It's generally frowned upon to update the kernel in a way that it
breaks backwards compatibility with an older DT binary. That's why I
didn't ask about (1).

It's fairly trivial to get it to work if we (who is "we" here?) agree
it's okay to add the compatible property and break DT backwards
compatibility in this case.
