Hi,

I confirm the fix by Stephen works for me, however, the conflicting patch by 
Linus breaks things a bit.

Lookup tables added to board files use function name "enable" while the 
regulator uses NULL. As a result, GPIO descriptor is not matched and not 
assigned to the regulator which ends up running with no control over GPIO pin.

Either the regulator driver should use the function name "enable" or that name 
should be removed from lookup tables.

Thanks,
Janusz
