Overall very nice!

Please just use devm_regulator_get().

As has been discussed at lenth elsewhere "optional" in regulator_get_optional
does *not* mean "software optional", it means "hardware optional".

Such as a terminal that may have a voltage connected or not be
connected to anything at all.

If the system does not define a regulator you will anyway get a
dummy regulator.
