Yeah! Finally it looks and works right. Feel free to add my:
Reviewed-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>
and
Tested-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>
(to patches: 1-2, 5-10 and 13-15).
One more thing - if I got everything right, gpiod_put() in
*regulator_register() error path has to be removed also in
wm8994-regulator.c and arizona-ldo1.c.
