So the drivers for Applied, thanks. The term "load switch" is a bit unusual - they're usually just called switches (or sometimes FETs since that tends to be the implementation).

Although they are called FETs indeed in the tables and register names.

Load switches are modeled as regulators but they just provide the voltage of their parent input supply. So the drivers for these switches usually don't provide a .get_voltage function handler but there is code in the kernel that assumes that all regulators should be able to provide its current voltage rail. So, if the output voltage for a regulator is not available and it has a parent supply, then pass the voltage of its parent.
