I don't like this approach very much. It's fine for barebox, but leads
to problems once you start Linux with the barebox device tree. I'd
rather go with the unmodified device trees (apart from the things
barebox changes to the device trees in order to start Linux).
How about a barebox,regulator-always-on property? If the regulator is
unnecessary,
it basically means you can assume it's always on when barebox runs.
If regulator_get is called with a property that points to such a node, a dummy
regulator is returned with which enable is a no-op. Additionally, do the same
for regulator-always-on, so the in-barebox device tree only needs to mark
non regulator-always-on that are expected to be always on when it runs due to
strapping/fuses as barebox,regulator-always-on.
What about regulators that are marked as regulator-always-on but need
voltage adjustments? Or isn't this a real use case for the bootloader?
Regards,
Stefan

I don't like this approach very much. It's fine for barebox, but leads
to problems once you start Linux with the barebox device tree. I'd
rather go with the unmodified device trees (apart from the things
barebox changes to the device trees in order to start Linux).
One idea that comes to my mind is: Would it be possible to provide a
call like
int regulator_provide_dummy(struct device_node *np);
Boards could call this to let barebox provide a dummy regulator for the
given node (the "dlg,da9062" node in your case) and its child nodes.
In of_regulator_get() we then see if the desired regulator is a child
node of a node registered as dummy provider, then register a dummy
regulator and return it.

[PATCH] ARM: dts: imx6qdl: phycore: Remove emmc vmmc-supply
There is no driver for the eMMC's vmmc-supply regulator in the barebox.
Use a dummy regulator instead by simply deleting the vmmc-supply
property.
