I'm not sure what you mean. Enable of what? The regulator? Why would we
enable it in the device's probe, as the device may never even be used?

Or do you mean regulator_get()? Doing that in DPI driver's probe is
problematic, as not all boards have any panels using DPI, and thus they
may not have the regulator set up, but all boards have the DPI device
added automatically. So for those boards the DPI probe would fail,
always, if we tried to get the regulator.
