rev 2 of the diff - this does depened on the fact that regulator_desc is
not memdup-ed by regulator code - that lets us do a bit of a trickery ;)
- and I dropped the prints.. Unrelated: This makes me wonder why
palmas_is_enabled_ldo at all?

Keerthy, Mark,
what do you think of the following (esp the flip of desc value):
