Should we add a Fixes: 26988efe11b1 ("regulator: core: Allow to get voltage
count and list from parent") tag?

You should add complete patch history, not only the delta with latest version.

Again, I think the check for get_voltage_sel is superfluous since !list_voltage
implies the former, otherwise regulator_register() would had returned -EINVAL.

Patch looks good to me though and I also see no regressions with it so:
