Wish I'd caught this sooner, but unfortunately I've just discovered that
this does in fact cause breakage on my systems -- having regulator-dummy
set as a supply on my PMBus regulators (instead of having them as their
own top-level regulators without an upstream supply) leads to
enable-count underflow errors when disabling them:

# echo 0 > /sys/bus/platform/devices/efuse01/state
[ 906.094477] regulator-dummy: Underflow of regulator enable count
[ 906.100563] Failed to disable vout: -EINVAL
[ 136.992676] reg-userspace-consumer efuse01: Failed to configure state: -22

A simple revert solves the problem for me, but since I'm honestly a
little unclear on the intent of the patch itself I'm not sure what a
revert might break and hence I don't know if that's necessarily the
right fix. Marcello (or others), any thoughts?


Thanks,
Zev
