Mostly because the voltage does not change. The voltage regulator
switches to a low current mode that reduces leakage but the voltage
does not change.

As an aside, I would like to enhance the regulator framework to
enable boards to hook their code directly into the regulator.
Arguably this is essential to allow pbias configuration (without
which the board may be damaged) so that regulator_enable/disable
can be used independently of the board, or for example to allow
the regulator core to turn the regulator on/off at initialisation.

Anyway, if that was done .before/.after_set_reg would not be
needed anymore.
