[PATCH 1/3] regulator: core: fix boot-on regulators use_count usage

From: Marco Felsch
Date: Tue Sep 17 2019 - 11:40:58 EST


Since commit 1fc12b05895e ("regulator: core: Avoid propagating to
supplies when possible") regulators marked with boot-on can't be
disabled anymore because the commit handles always-on and boot-on
regulators the same way.

Now commit 05f224ca6693 ("regulator: core: Clean enabling always-on
regulators + their supplies") changed the regulator_resolve_supply()
logic a bit by using 'use_count'. So we can't just skip the
'use_count++' during set_machine_constraints(). The easiest way I found
is to correct the 'use_count' just before returning the rdev device
during regulator_register().
