I didn't get what you meant there. Care to point to some reference dts
snippet please?

So iirc in the case of beryllium device, these regulators are pre set
by the bootloader and I can't find any reference of we
setting/resetting it explicitly to switch ON the panel and display. So
far default lab/ibb nodes are working fine for us and I'm hesitant to
tinker around anything regulator related that can potentially damage
the hardware. Having said that, I do see lab/ibb nodes being set in
the downstream dts, with relevant soft-start and discharge-resistor
properties and I can try switching to that once the new lab/ibb
changes land upstream.
