Assuming "this" means "erroring out if the CHARGER regulator is not
found":
The way it works here is that the CHARGER regulator is fetched directly
from the parent max77693 device (it's defined in the regulator subnode
in DT). I suppose we could add a DT property for it, in the charger node
(like we do for the USB connector), though I don't know if anyone would
use any other regulator here than the CHARGER regulator of the max77693
regulator device. (And after all, we're using it here to modify charger
registers... maybe another point to my argument that we should be
handling all of this directly in the charger driver instead of deferring
it to a regulator.)
Best regards
