You call regulator_enable(vqmmc) and regulator_disable() below, so you
are telling the regulator framework that your struct regulator should be
"on" or "off".

This will cause the sum of all struct regulator's for the underlying
struct regulator_dev to be recalculated. So after calling
regulator_disable() below your effective addition to the load
calculation is 0, regardless of which load you have specified.

Independent of this the property regulator-always-on (always_on in
struct regulator_dev) will determine if the enable/disable request will
actually be sent to the RPMh.


So, if you where to not call regulator_disable() for eMMC your argument
is correct, but as far as I can see you are and you're relying on the
regulator core to keep it always-on - and then the load logic is in
effect still.
