The VEML6075 requires a single supply to operate. The property already
exists in the bindings and it is used in the example, but it is still
not on the list of required properties.

The driver and bindings for the VEML6075 UV sensor were merged in the
merge window for v6.8 i.e. they have not been released yet beyond rc.

Applying this patch as a fix now would avoid an ABI break like the
recently discussed here:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/8409a5bc71b995e3b738b817a074cfb131c3b2b5.camel@gmail.com/

On the other hand, from the same discussion it can be concluded that the
major risk would be a potential warning with dtbs_check, in case this
patch is applied during the next merge window.

The VEML6075 driver already handles the power supply with
devm_regulator_get_enable().

I don't care if it introduces a dtbs_check problem, we can fix those.
The device clearly needs power and at least for linux it being missing
gets handled perfectly fine. I think it's pretty reasonable to do this.

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing.
