Unfortunately, there is still some lingering problem in the original
commit. In next-20130623 (and indeed since at least next-20140611),
neither the LCD panel or HDMI work on the NVIDIA Dalmore board.
Reverting this commit (just for conflicts) and the original problematic
commit "regulator: palmas: Reemove open coded functions with helper
functions" solves this. I see the following on boot:

> [    3.558776] tegra-dsi 54300000.dsi: cannot get VDD supply
> [    3.564272] platform 54300000.dsi: Driver tegra-dsi requests probe deferral
> [    3.571990] tegra-hdmi 54280000.hdmi: failed to get PLL regulator
> [    3.578377] platform 54280000.hdmi: Driver tegra-hdmi requests probe deferral

... but probe deferral never completes, yet with your "remove open coded
..." patch reverted, it all works fine.

Can you please take another look at the original patch?
