Please see the voltage steps for LDO3/4/6 described in the PM8010 TDOS 
document which is the most authoritative that we used internally for 
PMIC driver development:

Index	Vset (mV)
0	1800
1	2000
2	2200
3	2608
4	2624
5	2640
6	2656
7	2672
8	2688
9	2704
10	2720
11	2736
12	2752
13	2768
14	2784
15	2800
16	2816
17	2832
18	2848
19	2864
20	2880
21	2896
22	2912
23	2928
24	2944
25	2960
26	2976
27	2992
28	3008
29	3104
30	3200
31	3312

And I do see from the document change history that step 0 was changed 
from 1808mV and step 2 was changed from 2512mV, I don't know the reason 
of the change though.
