[PATCH 1/2] drivers/regulator/core.c: Don't print error on EPROBE_DEFER

From: Mike Looijmans
Date: Tue Dec 09 2014 - 08:13:09 EST


If a regulator depends on another regulator that happens to be called
later, the kernel always prints a message like this:
reg-fixed-voltage regulator_sd1: Failed to find supply vin
Since the deferral is not something fatal, nor even something the user
may need to be aware about, reduce the message to debug level.

This fixes a storm of error messages at boot when a board has a power
regulator on an I2C bus which powers GPIO controlled regulators for
example.
