PATCH 1/1 regulator: core: don't return error with inadequate reason

drms_uA_update() always returns failure when it cannot find regulator's input voltage. But if hardware supports load configuration with ops->set_load() and the input regulator isn't specified with valid reason such as the input regulator is battery, not finding input voltage is normal so such case should not return with an error.

Avoid such inadequate error return by checking input/output voltages only when drms_uA_update() is about to configure load with enum based ops->set_mode().

I think we can get rid of ops->get_optimum_mode since *most* of regulator drivers' get_optimum_mode ops are dead code. The only driver at least I found which has valid vaild_modes_mask with proper ops->get_optimum_mode is wm8350-regulator.c used by mach-mx31ads.c But I believe the issue what I'm fixing here is slightly off from the matter of removing ops->get_optimum_mode.

Applied "regulator: core: don't return error with inadequate reason" to the regulator tree

The patch

regulator: core: don't return error with inadequate reason

has been applied to the regulator tree at

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator.git

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
