cei-tk1-som has been recently added too; it's very similar to Jetson TK1.

It's fine to move the call to as3722_init() into board files rather than 
common files. However, note that this needs to be done atomically in a 
single commit; each commit in the series needs to compile and operate 
correctly on all boards. As such, simply reverting "tegra: Add support 
for setting up a as3722 PMIC" won't work, since that'll temporarily 
prevent at least venice2's tegra_lcd_pmic_init() from working, since it 
appears to relie on the call to as3722_init().
