What's wrong with getting the regulator in the driver as well ? Apart from the
OPP core ?

set_voltage() is still fine as there is some data that the OPP core has, but
sync_regulator() has nothing to do with OPP core.
And this may lead to more wrapper helpers in the OPP core, which I am afraid of.
And so even if it is not the best, I would like the OPP core to provide the data
and not get into this. Ofcourse there is an exception to this, opp_set_rate.
