If it's a GPIO not a regulator then it should be a GPIO not a regulator
in the device tree.  The device tree describes the hardware.  There was
some work on helping share GPIOs in the GPIO framework to accomodate
GPIOs for regulator enables, you should be able to do something similar
to what the regulator framework does.
