This is for a special mode where the voltage being configured is out of
the range usually supported by the regulator, requiring a hardware
design change to achieve.  The separate property is because otherwise we
can't distinguish the case where the mode is in use from the case where
the constraints are nonsense, and we need to handle setting a fixed
voltage on a configurable regulator differently to there being a
hardware fixed voltage on a normally configurable regulator.
