A hand-coded for loop is replaced with a single function call. The
actual generated code is smaller - I posted bloat-o-meter results last
time. The only reason the number of lines of code doesn't really
change is because the line is broken due to the function and argument
names being too long.

I'd argue that replacing a common operation that's reimplemented
explicitly by hand in many places with a helper function is already an
improvement. Consolidation is almost always good.

That being said, I like your idea about the regulator_get_from_names
helper, but it will take more time as we have to cover optional
multiple regulators as well. In other words: it's on my TODO list, but
in the meantime there's no harm in using this since Mark decided to
make it a part of the regulator API anyway.
