The regulator API doesn't care, you can call enable/disable in the
driver as normal. If the regulator is marked as always-on it will just
stay enabled even if the use-count drops to 0.

The other question however is if it's even allowed by the SoC design to
disable this supply outside of deep power down. A quick look into the
reference manual and datasheet didn't yield any information about this.

Lucas
