Turns out Greg had picked this one up 20 minutes before I sent my
comments. I did see Heikki's ack the day before and realised time was
short but was not able to drop everything and review the last revision
due to meetings that afternoon.

Well, well, I guess you can say I only have myself to blame for not
reviewing within a week of the last revision being posted.

You should be able to use i2c_smbus_read_byte() to avoid logging errors
when the boot firmware has *not* enabled the device.

My worry is that this perfectly valid case has not even been tested,
and worst case you may need a device-tree property to fully determine
whether the device has been initialised by the boot firmware or not (cf.
'regulator-boot-on').

And if we need binding changes those need to be there from the start.

I guess we have a few weeks to work this out, and if needed we can
always disable the driver temporarily.

I'll send an incremental fix for this.
