Does this node have a compatible string?  With looking at the code,
I guess it has a compatible string in your dts file.

I remember that Mark ever had a comment on a previous regulator DT
series from Haojian Zhuang, saying this DT parsing procedure can
probably just be private to regulator core and invisible to regulator
drivers.  That said whenever regulator_register() gets called with
parameter init_data as NULL, it should try to retrieve
regulator_init_data from device tree.  It will ease regulator drivers
a little.  They will only need to call regulator_register() with NULL
init_data for DT case.  More importantly, doing so will help solve the
dual 'dev' problem I see below.

Beside the 'dev' here with of_node attached, there will be another
'dev' created by regulator core function regulator_register(), which
is wrapped by 'regulator_dev'.

So we have two 'dev'.  One is created by DT core with of_node attached,
and used to retrieve regulator_init_data from device tree.  Another one
is created in regulator_register() and used by regulator core.

IMO, this is not what we want.  Instead of having two 'dev' for given
regulator, we should use the same 'dev' created in regulator_register()
to retrieve regulator_init_data from device tree, so that we do not need
the 'dev' created by DT core.  That said, with DT parsing procedure
moved into regulator core, we can get of_node for given regulator and
attach it to the 'dev' created by regulator core.

Will elaborate it a little more in patch #5.

Shawn
