In this particular case the regulator seems to be mandatory as they error out if regulator_get() fails. Also, the comment above regulator_enable() said the enabling was done to fix some bug. Hence I wasn't sure if we could just print a warning message and continue further upon failure. I will change it as per your suggestion and re-spin the patches. -- With warm regards, Sachin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
