Per https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tps65219.pdf (7.3.6 Linear
Regulators).

LDOs have two modes:

1. Load switch mode: in this case, output voltages of 1.5V up to 5.5V
are supported.

2 Linear regulator LDO mode where output voltage is programmable in the
range of 0.6V to 3.4V in 50mV-steps with possibility of bypass.

(CAUTION on page 25):
A mode change between LDO(/bypass) and LSW-mode must only be performed,
when this regulator is disabled!
A change between LDO and bypass-mode (supported by LDO1 and LDO2 only)
is supported during operation.

So, seems like bypass can be toggled even with LDO on?
