Subject: [PATCH] regulator: check for devicetree early.
Date: Fri, 1 Nov 2013 13:48:33 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131101134833.7070a5c5@notabene.brown> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1770 bytes --]


The behaviour of regulator core with respect to device-tree and
CONFIG_REGULATOR_DUMMY is inconsistent.

If there is no device-tree, then a board file can call
regulator_has_full_constraints() and this will negate the effect of
CONFIG_REGULATOR_DUMMY.

If a device-tree is given, regulator_has_full_constraints() is called
automatically, but too late to effectively negate the effect of
CONFIG_REGULATOR_DUMMY.

So it makes sense for regulator/core to check for devicetree earlier and call
regulator_has_full_constraints() before any call to regulator_get() can trip
up on CONFIG_REGULATOR_DUMMY.
