Ok, silly question: isn't it exactly what we want? Set the voltage for
the regulator when the system is suspended?

I thought it was because some regulators can have specific regs for
managing the suspend mode.
BTW, but then what is the difference between my code and (i.e.) the same
routine in da9055-regulator.c?
