Thanks for addressing this. I was slightly unsure myself, but IMHO this is
all good as this makes the driver backward compatible with older DT
which lack the regulator. If there was no vcc regulator necessary and the bridge
was working,then a dummy regulator is fine, as the DT fix would be adding a
always-on, regulator-fixed without any enable/disable possibility anyway.
Best regards,
Alexander
