This isn't really a get_status() operation - it's just showing the
status of the enable we set. The get_status() operation is for hardware
that has a mechanism for reading back the current physical status of the
regulator, usually including things like if it's in regulation or not.

Also please write normal conditional statements, it helps people read
the code.

Is I/O to the device unreliable for some reason? If so this isn't great
handling for it... also if there is an error from regmap_read() you
should return the error code.

This won't initialize mode if the regulator is in force PWM mode. It'd
be clearer and safer to just write a switch statement.

No, this is completely broken. A regulator driver should *never* modify
constraints, if the constraints are broken the constraints are broken,
and the constraints will already have been applied when we return from
registering the regulator.

Given that this driver is entirely specific to the parent PMIC there
should be no need for a separate compatible string, it's redundant.
