The Qualcomm platforms are running into trouble because the qcom_smd
driver is broken and apparently nobody checks -next works for their
boards since they only noticed after -rc1 in spite of the change having
been in -next for a good few weeks. You need at least "regulator:
qcom_smd: add list_voltage callback" and "regulator: qcom_smd: add
regulator ops for pm8941 lnldo" from my tree which I didn't send to
Linus yet since we only got them in at the end of last week. I think
that's probably OK for v4.6 TBH, the platform is fairly incomplete
upstream and the original patch fixes issues for other systems.
