[PATCH 5.4 139/158] regulator: avoid resolve_supply() infinite recursion

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 23 2020 - 08:18:52 EST


From: Michał Mirosław <mirq-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4b639e254d3d4f15ee4ff2b890a447204cfbeea9 upstream.

When a regulator's name equals its supply's name the
regulator_resolve_supply() recurses indefinitely. Add a check
so that debugging the problem is easier. The "fixed" commit
just exposed the problem.

Fixes: aea6cb99703e ("regulator: resolve supply after creating regulator")
