Some of anatop regulators support bypass mode, and in bypass mode,
minimum dropout is NOT required, the input voltage will be equal to
the output voltage. The minimum dropout value is ONLY necessary for
LDO enabled mode, so drop the minimum dropout for bypass mode to
avoid unexpected high voltage output from PMIC supplies.

The goal makes sense but I don't think it makes sense to do this in the
driver - changing this without the core knowing is likely to lead to
confusion at some point and also I think this behaviour is likely to be
the same for every regulator that has a bypass mode (at least if it
isn't I'm kind of confused about how it's bypassing, usually the minimum
drop is a function of maintaining regulation). Could you look into
doing something like this in the core instead please?
