This problem was introduced by:
commit daad134d6649 ("regulator: core: Request GPIO before creating
sysfs entries")
The error path was not updated correctly after moving GPIO registration
code and in case regulator_ena_gpio_free failed, device_unregister() was
called even though device_register() was not yet called.
This problem breaks the boot at least on all Tegra 32-bit devices. It
will also crash each device that specifices GPIO that is unavaiable at
regulator_register call. Here's error log I've got when forced GPIO to
be invalid:
[ 1.116612] usb-otg-vbus-reg: Failed to request enable GPIO10: -22

and here's backtrace from KDB:
