Subject: [PATCH] regulator: core: avoid error messages for deferred probing
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 2021 20:27:36 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210125192736.17657-1-andreas@kemnade.info> (raw)

Noise like this happens on boot with regulators which can be bypassed
when the supply is not probed. That looks too alarming and confusing.

[    3.844092] vddpu: bypassed regulator has no supply!
[    3.849105] vddpu: failed to get the current voltage: -EPROBE_DEFER
[    3.855591] vddpu: supplied by DCDC1
[    3.877211] vddsoc: bypassed regulator has no supply!
[    3.882538] vddsoc: failed to get the current voltage: -EPROBE_DEFER
[    3.888975] vddsoc: supplied by DCDC1

Handle such issues silently.
