or you did not realise that this is initialised by bootloader for example.

After investigating this issue a bit more I've found that this is
rather typical for power regulators not to update a register with
startup voltage set by a feedback resistor divider as it would cost
extra circuit.  So, I assume that most likely a bootloader normally
initializes power regulator in case it's needed eg. if it's supplying
CPU which is DVS-enabled.

Anyway, it's more clear now to me how this should be done.
