Yes, in the absence of any explicit action (i.e. a call to
regulator_set_voltage() elsewhere), the regulator core doesn't reprogram
the regulator at registration time, except for a few specific conditions
e.g. something like when min==max and apply_uV is set.

I imagine the DVFS code in your downstream kernel /is/ calling
regulator_set_voltage() later, assuming that config option is enabled
anyway. See arch/arm/mach-tegra/{dvfs.c,tegra2_dvfs.c}.
