We do have such case in drivers/regulator/max1586.c

/*
* The Maxim 1586 controls V3 and V6 voltages, but offers no way of reading back
* the set up value.
*/
static struct regulator_ops max1586_v3_ops = {
.set_voltage_sel = max1586_v3_set_voltage_sel,
.list_voltage = regulator_list_voltage_linear,
.map_voltage = regulator_map_voltage_linear,
};

static struct regulator_ops max1586_v6_ops = {
.set_voltage_sel = max1586_v6_set_voltage_sel,
.list_voltage = regulator_list_voltage_table,
};
