Hrm, what's the situation where that happens and why does it cause
problems?  The regulator API doesn't care if suspend is going on, and
nor do any of the current drivers for regulators.  There is an issue
with keeping things like I2C alive until the bitter end of suspend so
you've got a control bus to the regulators but that's a generic issue
which crops up with other subsystems too so a regulator-specific
workaround seems dodgy.

The patch itself seems fine, it's just that it feels like there's
something else going on.
