Unfortunately the code now only compiles in -next, since the following
fields are only defined there.

drivers/hwmon/pmbus/ltc2978.c:380:2: error: unknown field 'of_match' specified in initializer
drivers/hwmon/pmbus/ltc2978.c:380:2: error: unknown field 'regulators_node' specified in initializer

This means I can not apply the code unless I pull in the relevant changes.
Mark, do you have an immutable branch / tag for me to merge ?

If not this patch series will have to wait until the relevant regulator
changes are available in mainline.

On a side note, I am not too happy with the following comment in the
"Provide simplified DT parsing method" patch: "The current code leaks
the phandles for the child nodes, this will be addressed incrementally
and makes no practical difference for FDT anyway as the DT data
structures are never freed".

My use case includes instantiating the LTC chips through devicetree overlays,
which obviously does not work well with leaking DT nodes.

Thanks,
Guenter
