OK, I think this should be changed to use regulator_is_supported_voltage()
to pick a range if list_voltage() isn't there, we don't want to list an
extremely large number of voltages so using list_voltage() for continous
regulators wouldn't make sense.

Looking at the code I'd expect it to work with continuous regulators, if
it doesn't we should fix that.
