[PATCH] leds: lm3530: fix handling of already enabled regulators

From: Axel Lin
Date: Sun Apr 22 2012 - 11:12:00 EST


It is possible that the regulator has been previously enabled by bootloader or
kernel board initialization code. Thus, don't assume the regulator is disabled
by default. Get the correct status by regulator_is_enabled().

The leds-lm3530 driver was ignoring the initial status of the
regulator; this resulted in rdev->use_count being incremented to 2 after
calling lm3530_init_registers() in the .probe method when a regulator
was already enabled at insmod time, which made it impossible to ever
disable the regulator.
