Even if the regulator voltage is being changed by firmware with cpufreq-hw, the actual regulators should go to each CPU node and not in the cpufreq driver node, I agree with Viresh.
Besides, that's the same thing that we're doing with mediatek-cpufreq as well... and since we're talking about that, we should also do something about this such that we stop declaring `regulator-always-on` for CPU cores in devicetree, but this is probably slightly out of context for what you're trying to do here, so, read that as an "extra consideration" :-)
Cheers, Angelo
