Thank you Krzysztof.

I understand that this fixes an issue with commit 5f09a5cbd14a ("thermal:
exynos: Disable the regulator on probe failure"), which was included in
4.2.  However, since this commit was also tagged for stable, it has also
been backported to some stable kernels (at least 3.16.y-ckt and
3.19.y-ckt).

Would you agree that, for this reason, this patch is in fact applicable to
the 3.16 (and 3.19) kernel?

Cheers,
