The pattern we use in several (but not all) panel drivers are that
errors in unprepare/disable are logged but the function do not skip
the remainder of the function. This is to avoid that we do not disable
power supplies etc.

For this case we could ask ourself if the display needs to enter sleep
mode right before we disable the regulator. But if the regulator is
fixed, so the disable has no effect, this seems OK.

Please fix the unprepare to not jump out early, on top of or together
with the other fix.
