Hrm, this is fairly generic - it's REGULATOR_MODE_ACTIVE. But I'm a bit
unsure about how generic exposing it is in bindings since it's often
dynamic in the running system, we've really not got any mainline
examples of something setting a mode. With modern regulators the mode
detection stuff in the hardware is generally good enough that there's no
benefit from doing this, it's suprising to actually see systems that
benefit.

This I think we should definitely add a framework feature for this and
make into a generic property, it's a very standard feature and more
normally set unconditionally.
