I do share your concerns about having this logic mirrored here is
risky, unfortunately the regulator object is created upon request from
a consumer; so it is not available when regulator_register() calls
set_machine_constraints().

An alternative is to drop the conditional setting of
REGULATOR_CHANGE_VOLTAGE from of_regulator.c and force the regulator
drivers to set this flag explicitly; to avoid the difference in
behavior depending on configuration.
