Yeah, sorry. :( I'll fix it up if I need a v3.

Sure, if you want. One could still argue that it provides a tiny bit
of abstraction and avoids the caller from having to know where to find
the number of regulators and all that, but I can go either way. Is
this worth a v3, do you think? If so, I might tack it on at the end of
the series.

Note that I say "v3" because I actually included this patch in a
larger series and called that series "v2" [1].
