I'm no expert for this stuff. But, based on the discussion here, the opposite has been identified as superior solution (discussing nand subtarget): https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/2184#discussion_r342136635 Despite, I remember a comment that fixed regulators won't be available on all SOCs...
