It's valid to have a .get_voltage_sel callback without a .list_voltage?

At least it seems that _regulator_get_voltage() assumes that having a
.get_voltage_sel implies that a .list_voltage will also be available.

static int _regulator_get_voltage(struct regulator_dev *rdev)
{
...
	if (rdev->desc->ops->get_voltage_sel) {
		sel = rdev->desc->ops->get_voltage_sel(rdev);
		if (sel < 0)
			return sel;
		ret = rdev->desc->ops->list_voltage(rdev, sel);
	} else if (rdev->desc->ops->get_voltage) {
...
}

So I would only check for if (ops->get_voltage).

I wonder if instead of always checking if the regulator lacks operations,
it wouldn't be better to do it just once and store that the regulator is
a switch so that state can be used as explicit check for switch instead.

Something like if (!rdev->supply || !rdev->switch) looks more clear to me.

Agreed, the logic sounds reasonable indeed and I didn't think of this
case when writing the mentioned commit, so feel free to add:

I've tested in the system that led to the mentioned commit and I did
not find any issue with $SUBJECT.
