Should this be a return here?

I gave this a quick test on tegra124 having populated the
get/set_bypass() operators for the as3722. In this case, there is still
a problem because _regulator_get_voltage() is called during regulator
registration when set_machine_constraints() is called, which is before
we have called regulator_register_resolve_supply(). Therefore, it seems
to me that we still need to resolve the supply before we call
set_machine_constraints().
