Subject: [PATCH 3/5] regulator: Support driver probe deferral


From: Mark Brown <broonie@...nsource.wolfsonmicro.com>

If we fail to locate a requested regulator return -EPROBE_DEFER. If drivers
pass this error code through to their caller (which they really should)
then this will ensure that the probe is retried later when further devices
become available.

[manjugk@...com: changed error value from EAGAIN to EPROBE_DEFER]
