On carefully reading to the document how to upstream, I find that I
had full duty for verify patch i sent.
The fault is entirely mine and I deeply regret that it should have occurred.
I will always verify patch by meself before sending it.
I have already verfied sub-device adc/led/regulator done in Mediatek
phone and Hikey960 development board
