I think this churning will continue until we either make the dummy
regulator non optional and drop this warning that gets printed each
time it is used, or we at least provide a way to easily add a fixed
dummy regulator without adding >20 lines of code to each board just
for saying that we don't have a regulator for this particular device.
The following could be an example how to add such a helper.
