Euh how so an error ?

If 0 is returned, this means no regulators are found in device-tree. It's not an
error, it's a lack of regulators (ie. no Output_V3 and no Output_V6), and no
more handling is necessary in this function, while returning "ok", ie 0 ...

As for the "state report", this max1586 doesn't report anything, it cannot even
be queried about the current voltage, sic ...

If you want me to modify this bit I need a bit more of an explanation to
understand.

Cheers.
