[PATCH] arm64: dts: qcom: sdm845-tama: Keep labibb on, so kernel can disable it

In case if they were enabled by the bootloader as part of some
reference/common routine and left hanging. Linux will switch them off if
they're never used.

Perhaps "keeping it on" is a little bit unfortunate in that the wording
collides with keeping the regulator's output enabled, but anyway

Yeah, I still can't figure better wording... :(

Anyway, I'm still thinking about the driver. We disable &lab and &ibb 
node, but the parent &labibb node should be loaded. Thus - in the theory 
- driver, should operate.

I don't think it's extra important, but it sounds this should be the 
right way.

So, friend fixed tama-akatsuki against -next tree and having labibb 
nodes there crashes the kernel, so it seems disabling labibb had some 
reason.

So, please do not merge until figured out!

"""
It's observed that the bootloader on this device will enable the labibb
and leave them enabled, despite being unsed as these devices come with
OLED screens.

Leave the nodes active in DeviceTree to allow the operating system to
turn them off.

I think above captures the discussion, so the link can be omitted?
