I think we decided in the driver side patches that this isn't an issue because the driver will ignore the regulator for now. Eventually it will take control and firmware flashing will be done differently.

I find it pretty disappointing that userspace needs to control the regulator at all though. We should work towards moving the control into the kernel for all these gpios and regulators so that userspace simply flashes the firmware in a platform agnostic way.
