It seems like it's time to create a MC13783 header file containing some helper macros and symbolic names to the 13783's registers so we can write:
reg = MC13783_READ_CMD(MC_REG_FOO);
...
val = something_symbolic | something_symbolic2;
reg = MC13783_WRITE_CMD(MC_REG_FOO, val);
...
etc..


Also, I'm pretty sure some other i.MX31 boards could benefit from changing some voltages in U-boot so perhaps we could have a mc13783-reg.c (-reg as in regulators) file containing stuff like mc13783_set_regulator(MC_VRFDIG, VRFDIG_1V8)?

I suppose you know that 1.6V is only needed if the CPU is clocked at 532MHz, if it's clocked at 399MHz it can be supplied with 1.2V.
