The discussion ended without a fix (at least for spitz). I seen two
proposals:
- As ADS7846 hardware does not require dedicated regulator, don't
  require it in driver and fail only on platforms that have a dedicated
  regulator.
- Use dummy regulators for all platforms without dedicated ADS7846
  regulator.

There is no dedicated regulator on spitz, ADS7846 uses common always-on
power supply.

OK, I will do 2 or 3. In the new kernel spitz has a regulator, but it is
not related to ADS7846. And it is actually broken:
