[PATCH] ASoC: cx20442: Don't ignore regulator_get() errors.

[Janusz Krzysztofik]

In its current shape, the driver just ignores errors returned by
regulator_get() at component_probe().  This doesn't hurt on Amstrad
Delta board as long as it registers the codec device at late_initcall,
when the regulator which depends on basic-mmio-gpio device (probed as
late as at dev_initcall) is already available.  Otherwise the driver
may end up trying to control a codec which is not powered up.

Remove that dependency on initialization order by handling the error.
If the regulator is not yet available and -ENODEV is returned, convert
it to -EPROBE_DEFER to get another chance.
