[PATCH 1/1] regulator: mc13xxx: Fix NULL pointer error in non-DT mode

From: Sachin Kamat
Date: Tue Feb 25 2014 - 06:25:21 EST


Add a check to avoid NULL pointer dereference error when
booted in non-DT mode. While at it also remove the additional
of_node_get which is no longer needed for of_get_child_by_name
and fix the node pointer.
