Yes, regulator_bulk_enable() could fit. The only thing that worries me
is that we only check for errors returned from regulator_enable() after
all async work is done (which is probably what you mean by "they don't
wait for the ramp to complete before kicking off the next enable...")
which could leave us with DVDD applied without IOVDD for a short amount
of time. I'm not sure this would be a really issue and that would
damage the HW, but from what I can tell from the datasheet, It's not
advised to apply DVDD without IOVDD.
