In other drivers, we've been doing:

ret = devm_regulator_get_enable_read_voltage(...);
if (ret < 0)
	return dev_err_probe(dev, ret, "failed to read '%s' voltage, ...);

adc->vref_mv = ret / 1000;

It can be easy to make a typo or forget to specify the voltage when creating
a .dts, so I think the error message is helpful to catch that.

And we use ret to avoid having adc->vref_mv temporarily holding a
value with the wrong units (and can make it have an unsigned type).
