This is still DT only code in the core file, we really need the core to
not know anything about DT so that we know that we can support this
feature with other firmwares if we need to.  Just move all the parsing
code into the of_regulator.c then have a second step that goes through
and validates extra stuff like the presence of set voltage operations in
the generic code.

It's better to print out failing values when things go wrong - it really
helps people debug their DTs if the error messages are specific about
what went wrong.  This applies to a bunch of the errors here.

I'd really expect us to be failing to probe if we run into an error.
Otherwise we could end up doing bad things to the hardware at runtime
later on, or confusing ourselves and crashing with partially set up
datastructures.  It's also not 100% clear to me how we handle the case
where only some of the coupled regulators have probed.

Why do we need this?
