devm_add_action() could be used in the probe function to schedule the call
to tsl2772_chip_off(). That would eliminate the need for
tsl2772_remove(). See tsl2772_disable_regulators_action() for an example in
that driver.

Chuhong: Another potential cleanup to shrink the size of this driver is
to move it over to the regulator_bulk_() API. I didn't realize that API
existed at the time I introduced the regulator support. If you're
interested in taking on that cleanup as well, I can test those changes
for you if you don't have the hardware.
