Yes, for that purpose yes, The i.MX6SL has more functions than the i.MX6SLL,
which you will of course not find on the SLL pins.

It is on the power key. So probably we could have "power" in its name.
GLED is just the name in vendors uboot and kernel.

I use that led also as an output in uboot to have multiboot between
vendor system, vendor kernel +debian system and patched mainline + debian system.

Well, 512MByte. Seems that uboot overwrites that. But we should use the correct
value here.

I have taken then from the tolino board file. Probably they are netnames
of the pcb but not the names of the regulators in the pmic.
