The current behaviour of bypassed regulators is intentional.

Or should a bypassed regulator ignore all other requests? One of the
behaviors that this patch series relies on is that calling set_voltage
on a bypassed regulator propagates this request to the supply and picks
the minimum voltage there. An alternative implementation would be to

Yes, the expectation is that if anything is being changed it won't have
any effect until regulation is reenabled but we're not particularly
expecting much activity on bypassed regulators.

OK, so it is up to consumers to ensure the supply voltage is acceptable
before allowing bypass. If they want to do something clever they should
register as a consumer to the supply as well.

No, that's not expected either - one or the other is fine but both isn't
expected.  What you're looking for here is something logically different
to bypass even if the hardware implementation ends up the same.
