Okay, I'll use the helper regulator_is_enabled_regmap() here and remove 
this completely.

Okay, I'll use regulator_enable_regmap().

Anyway I will be removing this API.

Ok, I'll use regulator_disable_regmap.

Okay.

I think it is not necessary, will remove it.

OK, I will remove this if check.

Okay I will remove this.

Okay will remove this check as well.
