regulator: When constraining modes fall back to higher power modes
If a mode requested by a consumer is not allowed by constraints
automatically fall back to a higher power mode if possible. This
ensures that consumers get at least the output they requested while
allowing machine drivers to transparently limit lower power modes
if required.
