I think it relies on the fact that only one of the two PMICs is mounted
on the board. There are versions of the board with the Dialog PMIC, and
other versions with Frescale's. Worse it is, there is no easy way to
detect which version of the board is running.
However, only one of the two branch can run, because i2c_probe() fails
if the PMIC is not found.

Agree, but physically not possible, until Freescale decides to mount
both PMICs on the mx53loco...(but this is a nonsense)
