This creature of indisputable beauty seemed to do the job on my
test systen, however I just realized that the condition is BS. It
turns out that on my system the voltage count of 1 stems from the
parent, since the voltage count of the control supply itself is zero.

int regulator_count_voltages(struct regulator *regulator)
{
	struct regulator_dev    *rdev = regulator->rdev;

	if (rdev->desc->n_voltages)
		return rdev->desc->n_voltages;

	if (!rdev->supply)
		return -EINVAL;

	return regulator_count_voltages(rdev->supply);
}

This certainly doesn't help to determine if the regulator has a
continous voltage range. It seems we need a function that evaluates
rdesc->continuous_voltage_range
