PATCH 1/1 arm64: dts: rockchip: Remove workaround that prevented Turing RK1 GPU power regulator control

The RK3588 GPU power domain cannot be activated unless the external power regulator is already on. When GPU support was added to this DT, we had no way to represent this requirement, so regulator-always-on was added to the vdd_gpu_s0 regulator in order to ensure stability. A later patch series (see "Fixes:" commit) resolved this shortcoming, but that commit left the workaround -- and rendered the comment above it no longer correct.

Remove the workaround to allow the GPU power regulator to power off, now that the DT includes the necessary information to power it back on correctly.

Fixes f94500eb7328b ("arm64: dts: rockchip: Add GPU power domain regulator dependency for RK3588")
