Possibly the comment below falls into the bikeshed colour category.
I'm not really that fussed either way.

I think I'd slightly prefer this as
	ret = devm_regulator_get_enable_read_voltage(dev, "vref");
	if (ret == -ENODEV) /* vcc-supply is deprecated, but supported still */
		ret = devm_regulator_get_enable_read_voltage(dev, "vcc");
	if (ret == -ENODEV)
		st->use_internal_vref = true;
	else if (ret < 0)
		return dev_err_probe()...
(which I think is functionally the same).

But if you strongly prefer yours I guess it is readable enough.
