Regardless of how we deal with this with the code that Ubuntu actually have in the kernel releases you highlighted has isn't intended to work well with what they're doing. Like I said in another mail ACPI telling the regulator core that everything can be stubbed would be better but with what's there right now my immediate recommendation would be to turn off the config option since we know having it on can cause problems. No matter what we do in mainline it's not going to change already released kernels and they can do this right now. I'm open to surprise but I'm relatively confident that there aren't x86 systems running a mainline kernel without out of tree code that would be affected (which would be required to set up supplies to do anything useful). Anything using dummy regulators only will get equivalent behaviour by turning off the API completely.
