Yea, my argument is that when we are moving around the regulator
handling anyways, we should move the regulator_disable into the suspend
function. It's the right thing to do: we don't want the bus to be
powered when the system is in suspend and while the use-count is
correct, it's confusing to read the resume function otherwise.
