[PATCH] arm64: dts: ti: k3-am625-beagleplay: Add boot phase tags for pmic

[Anshul Dalal]

The PMIC regulators for beagleplay are required for booting, therefore
this patch moves the corresponding 'bootph-all' tag from the parent
tps65219 node to all the regulator sub-nodes.

Author: Anshul Dalal <anshuld@ti.com>

arm64: dts: ti: k3-am625-beagleplay: Add boot phase tags for pmic

This commit moves the 'bootph-all' tag from the parent tps65219 PMIC node
to all of its regulator sub-nodes. The intent is to ensure the PMIC
regulators are available during the boot phase.

[Severity: High]
Will removing bootph-all from the parent PMIC node prevent U-Boot from
probing the PMIC and its regulators during early boot?

During U-Boot's early boot phases, the driver model only binds nodes with
properties like bootph-all. If this is removed from the parent tps65219
node, the parent PMIC might be skipped.

Because the parent wouldn't be bound, would the driver model fail to scan
or bind its child regulator sub-nodes, even though this patch adds
bootph-all to them? Additionally, the U-Boot SPL fdtgrep tool strips
essential properties (such as reg and compatible) from untagged parent
nodes, which could break the I2C bus device attachment entirely.
