[ Upstream commit c32f1ebfd26bece77141257864ed7b4720da1557 ]
If regulator_enable() fails, enable_count is incremented still.
A consumer, assuming no matching regulator_disable() is necessary on
failure, will then get this error message upon regulator_put()
since enable_count is non-zero:
[ 1.277418] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at drivers/regulator/core.c:2304 _regulator_put.part.0+0x168/0x170
The consumer could try to fix this in their driver by cleaning up on
error from regulator_enable() (i.e. call regulator_disable()), but that
results in the following since regulator_enable() failed and didn't
increment user_count:
[ 1.258112] unbalanced disables for vreg_l17c
[ 1.262606] WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 1 at drivers/regulator/core.c:2899 _regulator_disable+0xd4/0x190
Fix this by decrementing enable_count upon failure to enable.
With this in place, just the reason for failure to enable is printed
as expected and developers can focus on the root cause of their issue
instead of thinking their usage of the regulator consumer api is
incorrect. For example, in my case:
[ 1.240426] vreg_l17c: invalid input voltage found

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
