Thanks for the hint. I was trying to deal with a regulator that was
not software managed but also required the voltage level to be set to
certain level. That was possible with 'apply_uV' constraint in non-dt
case. Anyway, I have modified the code to manage the regulator and
this works fine in dt case as well without the 'apply_uV' constraint.

Ok. I guess the above change is incorrect then.

Thanks,
Thomas.
