omap5-board-common: remove not physically existing vdds_1v8_main fixed-regulator
This device tree include file describes a fixed-regulator connecting smps7_reg output (1.8V) to some 1.8V rail and consumers (vdds_1v8_main). This regulator does not physically exist. I assume it was introduced as a wrapper around smps7_reg to provide a speaking signal name "vdds_1v8_main" as label. This fixed-regulator without real function was not an issue in driver code until Commit 98e48cd9 ("regulator: core: resolve supply for boot-on/always-on regulators") introduced a new check for regulator initialization which makes Palmas regulator registration fail: [ 5.407712] ldo1: supplied by vsys_cobra [ 5.412748] ldo2: supplied by vsys_cobra [ 5.417603] palmas-pmic 48070000.i2c:palmas@48:palmas_pmic: failed to register 48070000.i2c:palmas@48:palmas_pmic regulator The reason is that the supply-chain of regulators is too long and goes from ldo3 through the virtual vdds_1v8_main regulator and then back to smps7. This adds a cross-dependency of probing Palmas regulators and the fixed-regulator which leads to probe deferral by the new check and is no longer resolved. Since we do not control what device tree files including this one reference (either &vdds_1v8_main or &smps7_reg or both) we keep both labels for smps7 for compatibility.
