Interesting corner case. Given we have no way of knowing if the
wiring has REFOUT connected to REFIN I see two ways we should fix this.

1) Just have any DT doing this provide a fixed regulator.
2) Have the REFOUT supported as an actual regulator - in theory it might be
wired to other devices. This might get a little interesting ordering
wise as we'll want to register the regulator before we try to consume
it in the same driver. I'm also not 100% sure there are no other issues
in a driver providing and consuming the same regulator.

I'm not keen to just assume lack of regulator means the chip is wired
like this. Would be a different question if this was just setting
an internal mux to use the regulator without external loop back being
needed.
