| Can't we use some generic common name in place of SD_3V3 ?

It's also legal to design a board where you tie SD power to, eg, 3.3V
rail as we did on GTA02 for WLAN connection.  Then the mci subsystem is
actually a second consumer of a regulator which has nothing to do with
SD (since it is a 3.3V rail).  It'd be wrong if we forced the name of
that power rail to SD-related.

So I think the only way through it is to either pass the name in by
platform data, or pull the regulator code out of s3cmci and do it in the
machine file as a callback through platform data.
