Will do that with a dev_err()

-       if (ret < 0)
+       if (ret < 0) {
+               dev_err(hw->dev,
+                       "Failed to read LDO overcurrent indicator\n");
                return IRQ_NONE;
+       }

Thanks,
I will refactor that part with a default error path and only return IRQ_HANDLED
when there is a hit on the notifier call.

Not much use -- yes.

I've taken another look at this and I've decided to move it into the core.
The VDD_WARN applies to the system voltage and is not specific to regulators.
So it would make more sense for this to exist in the core driver instead -- this
would need to exist at all times and if it stays in the regulators it could be
moduled out of existence.

This will mean messing with a few files to fix this one.

drivers/mfd/da9062-core.c
regulator/da9062-regulator.c
include/linux/mfd/da9062/core.h

I'll resend this as PATCH V2.

Okay. I think I am getting this.
As of v3.18 there are  newer parts to regulator_desc from the commit 
a0c7b16 "regulator: of: Provide simplified DT parsing method"
The search function is now in the core. 

Am I on on the right track with this one?

yes -- this will come as part of the refactoring for the irq handler
static irqreturn_t da9062_vdd_warn_event(int irq, void *data)
into the core.
