There is a new function devm_regulator_get_enable(). It will both
request the regulator and enable in and then automatically disable and
free it when the device is removed.

The API can be slightly confusing in this regard. In your case you also
want to use the non-optional API. The optional API is for cases where
you need to know whether a regulator is connected or not. If you do not
need to know use the non-optional API, if no regulator is specified the
regulator framework will just a return a noop regulator as a
placeholder. The optional version will actually return an error if no
regulator is specified, so with your patch existing users of this driver
will break.
