How do others deal with it? I'm asking because I've been seeing these
warnings for years on many platforms which makes me think they are not
a high priority for anyone.

The best approach would be to provide an optional bulk get for the
regulator API. Or extend struct regulator_bulk_data with bool optional
and take this into account.
