[Armbian build PR] - Pinctr dummy regulators

[RSS Bot]

Description

Add dummy regulators to pinctr dts for orangepione SBC. This will prevent the kernel driver from issuing warnings "supply vcc-xx not found, using dummy regulator" for the dummy regulators added.

Documentation summary for feature / change

How Has This Been Tested?

Initially the dts entries were manually added to a running system using the dts editor in armbian-config to verify that the changes produced the desired result.

Then a kernel patch was created, put into a git repository and an image generated from that repository. After installing the image on an orangepione the dtb was examined via the dts editor of armbian-config to confirm the presence of the required entries and the relevant output of dmesg was compared to a dmesg prior to the changed image.
