I would expect that if bypass is enabled then the constraints on the parent regulator would be set appropriately to support this, I wouldn't expect that we'd try to apply the operating constraints of the regulator to the supply. Usually bypass is used for low power retention modes with different settings to those used in normal operation that wouldn't be desired in normal operation, if we were going to have constraints for this I'd expect a separate set used during bypass.
