Depending on how entangled a future driver for the charger blocks would
be one could either just upstream a dcdc regulator driver to control
vbus today, or a "lite version" of a charging driver exposing just the
vbus regulator.

Either way I would prefer this over poking the register directly from
this driver, as it will make it tricky to migrate to a proper charger
driver later.
