Yeah, I was trying to keep the diff small here. There doesn't seem to be
any canonical way to mark regulators as "not available". This driver
leaves it set as an error pointer, the Tegra PCI driver sets it to NULL.
They're both valid ways to do it as long as they use the proper checks
before using them. So I wasn't trying to force one way or another, just
kept it the way it was and only fixed the problematic checks.

I hadn't checked any other drivers, but I can take another look and
prepare patches for them.
