Sorry, i didn't get you.
This patch was initially posted by me sometime back.

Right. This will hit NULL pointer dereferencing later in the code.

May be we can have something like this:

     if (IS_ERR(exynos_ehci->vdd33)) {
             exynos_ehci->vdd33 = NULL;
     } else {
             err = regulator_enable(exynos_ehci->vdd33);
             if (err) {
                     dev_err(&pdev->dev,
                             "Failed to enable 3.3V Vdd supply\n");
                     goto fail_regulator1;
             }
     }

and later in the code check for NULL pointer before enabling the regulator.

Sure, i will amend both the patches.
