Nit ... I think that order of the above should be reversed.


Couldn't find any reference stating proper order of those tags and briefly looking at other commit messages shows this order as quite common.

What about the case where device_register() fails? I think you still
call clean and so you will leak the gpio?

Jon

True. I couldn't find anything more clever than calling regulator_ena_gpio_free() in two paths like in an upcomming v2. Putting it inside of regulator_dev_release() won't entirely fix the problem either as this won't be called in this particular case (device_register() fail). I personally still prefer calling regulator_ena_gpio_free() inside of regulator_register insted of deffering it to regulator_dev_release() as it seems to be clearer to me.

Best regards,
