I had it as devm_regulator_get() in v1, but at that time, I was faking
the firmware init delay using a regulator property. Now that I want to
delay in this driver after enabling the regulator, I'd like to know the
difference between a dummy and a real regulator. There's no need to wait
after messing with the dummy regulator.
