Maybe only the matter of taste. The "for" loop for only two elements?

Is it desirable to define all four for BUCK1 and two for BUCK2 DVS
voltages in platform code? 

Why the "general purpose" slots approach for user changeable/definable
voltages (as it was done previously) have been replaced? Is the current
approach faster?
