This is broken, the state of the regualtor during system runtime need
have no connection with the state of the regulator during system
suspend.

According to the changelog this is all about reflecting changes in the
system state done by firmware but there's no interaction with firmware
here which means this will be at best fragile.  If we need to reflect
changes in firmware configuration I'd expect there to be some
interaction with firmware about how it is configured, or at least that
the configuration would come from the same source.
