From: Mark Brown <broonie@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 261f06315cf7c3744731e36bfd8d4434949e3389 ] While we currently assume that regulators with no control available are just uncontionally enabled this isn't always as clearly displayed to users as is desirable, for example the code for disabling unused regulators will log that it is about to disable them. Clean this up a bit by setting always_on during constraint evaluation if we have no available mechanism for controlling the regualtor so things that check the constraint will do the right thing.
