[PATCH 1/6] Revert "regulator: core: Handle full constraints systems when resolving supplies"

Show all headers | View raw

This reverts commit 9f7e25edb1575a6d2363dc003f9cc09d840657e2.

When a regulator A is registered and is supplied by regulator B which is
not yet registered then a regulator_get on regulator A will set the As
supply to the dummy regulator. This is not correct, we should return
-EPROBE_DEFER instead as done without this patch.
Of course reverting this patch brings back the issue it fixed, so this
is not a solution, but what is the correct solution?
