Subject: [PATCH] regulator: defer probe when trying to get voltage from
 unresolved supply
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

regulator_get_voltage_rdev() is called in regulator probe() when
applying machine constraints.  The "fixed" commit exposed the problem
that non-bypassed regulators can forward the request to its parent
(like bypassed ones) supply. Return -EPROBE_DEFER when the supply
is expected but not resolved yet.
