I had initially proposed to resolve the supply only when necessary
during regulator_get_voltage() when checking for bypass, perhaps that
would after all be more appropriate here?

Alternatively I guess we could conditionalize on bypass mode before
resolving the supply early here, but I'm not sure how well that would
work given how early in the regulator setup we are at this point.
