Right now, the regulator is optional, and any failure to acquire the
regulator is just ignored.

Instead, I think the behaviour we want is:

Attempt to get regulator.
1) If no error -> OK
2) If deferred probe error -> return -EPROBE_DEFER
3) If any other error -> ignore it

Assuming that regulator_get() can explicitly detect and return the
difference between cases (1) and (2) above. If it can't, it seems like
it should be able to.
