The culprit is in machine_constraints_voltage:

list_voltage returns 0 if the fixed regulator is initialized to 0
microvolts, so...

max_uV/min_uV are not initialized...

And we end here.

I don't know what to do here. Probably the check for value <= 0 should
be removed, but then again the description shows:

 * @list_voltage: Return one of the supported voltages, in microvolts; zero
 *      if the selector indicates a voltage that is unusable on this system;
 *      or negative errno.  Selectors range from zero to one less than
 *      regulator_desc.n_voltages.  Voltages may be reported in any order.

(I wonder if negative voltages are intentionally not supported)
