Hi Paul,

Thanks for the patches. Please see my comments below.

EN pin is used for enabling HW logic like I2C block. It's not regulator 
enable pin. Please check the block diagram in the datasheet.

All regulators of LP8720 and LP8725 are controlled through I2C 
registers. Additionally, LP8725 provides external pin control for LDO3 
and BUCK2. In this case, you can use 'regulator_config.ena_gpio' when a 
regulator is registered.

Please use general property, "enable-gpios" instead of "ti,enable-gpio".

lp872x_enable_hw() would be better.

LP8720 device needs max 200usec for startup time.
LP8725 also requires enable time about 30ms.
Please use usleep_range() after EN pin control.

Logic should be enabled prior to DVS configuration. And please call 
lp872x_enable_hw() in _probe().

Please replace "ti,enable-gpio" with "enable-gpios".
