This is basically OK but a few comments below.

Given that I'm not seeing much code sharing except is_enabled() it might
be nice to split the driver up by regulator, it's very large.

I'm having a hard time liking this.

dev_err or one of your custom error macros.

If they're all checking bit 7 the switch statement feels a bit odd...

That looks like it should be returning an error. 0 is for things that
are in range but can't be set for some reason (it's more intended for
values knocked out by constraints or similar).

Just implement get_voltage_sel() - the same thing applies to most of the
other regulators that have meaningful selectors.

Do we need #defines for the indexes into these arrays? It's a bit magic
and the code is complicated enough.

switch would be clearer.

Having system_uA here seems wrong, this is hardly something that is
specific to this chip.
