You should really pay more attention to the errors here, especially for
the enable - this function does return an error code so you could
usefully tell the caller about failures.

It's much better style to assume that there will be a regulator in the
code and let the core worry about stubbing it out. Given that you don't
offer any support for varying the voltage dynamically I'd suggest just
removing the set_voltage() support for now - if someone adds it they can
always add additional properties and worry about handling that situation
then.
