I think there might be a misunderstanding on your side.

Basically, Bjorn is saying that code to disable a regulator is not needed.
(Therefore he is in favor of the patch to revert.)

If a board does not require some power rail, then it should simply *not*
list it in the DT. My board *does* require that power rail, so I must
list it in the DT. The driver should not attempt to work around that
simple fact (by disabling a regulator that was erroneously listed).

I don't know how to disable the PMIC.

AFAIU, Yaniv no longer works for CA, so he is unlikely to reply.

I'll resend the series and CC the regulators maintainers so they
can share their thoughts.
