Please let me know in case I have misunderstood, but I don't see a need
to change the regulator_enable/disable() logic if this property is set.
If the regulators are truly always-on, the regulator core already knows
what to do and we should not duplicate that logic here.

Based on the alleged silicon erratum discussed in patch [1/2], it seems
we only want to control the behavior of the reset GPIO. Therefore, only
the calls to gpiod_set_value_cansleep() should be affected and the name
of the property updated to reflect what it's actually doing.
