Yea, I can change the return to -ENODEV for this and get_voltage.

I was thinking at some point about adding a list_voltage for these
regulators, however I dropped that idea, because the regulators can
support a range of voltages (from min to max) with some stepping value.
But... if you propose that the list_voltage would just return the
current voltage back, wouldn't that also potentially confuse the user
more, as it can only see the single voltage and nothing else, maybe
making it to think that the regulator can only support one voltage
level?

I'll change that also.
