Hello Guenter,
I've just tested and devm_regulator_get_enable() does work as you've
described, providing a dummy regulator.
But, according to the 'ti,ina2xx' binding [1] I see that the `vs-supply`
property is not required. Hence wouldn't it be correct for `vs-supply`
to be optional ? Using 'devm_regulator_get_enable_optional()'
[1]
