On Panda the +5V supply for DVI EDID is supplied by the
same regulator that poweres the USB Hub. Currently, the
DSS/DVI subsystem doesn't know how to manage this regulator
and so DVI EDID reads will fail if USB Hub is not enabled.

As a temporary fix we keep this regulator permanently enabled
on boot. This fixes the DVI EDID read problem.

As pointed out by Tomi, the correct usage here is "regulator-always-on".

The reason I use "regulator-boot-on" is because the regulator framework doesn't 
turn on the regulator. (maybe a bug in the regulator framework?)

"regulator-boot-on" is not sufficient as it doesn't prevent drivers from turning it
off. e.g. loading and unloading the USB host driver will turn of the regulator.
So it must be used along with "regulator-always-on"

I'll fix this in v2.

cheers,
