Thinking about this more, I seem to remember this is something
that has been discussed before, having the need to have
situations where a driver and the framework are both managing the
regulator at once on the same device.

I wonder if this commit was related to that:

commit ff268b56ce8c ("regulator: core: Don't spew backtraces on duplicate sysfs")

Apologies I don't have as much time as I normally would to look
into such issues at the moment, due to various internal company
things going on.

I do suspect that this option is the way to go though and if
there are issues of duplicates being created by the regulator
core those probably need to be resolved in there. But that can
probably be done separate from this series.

Thanks,
Charles
