I think I have a better idea: Surround the regulator code, or at least
its error handling, in the lm90 driver with

	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF)) {

Would that be ok ? If yes I'll submit a patch. I'll do the same in
another driver I am working on.

That's not going to have the desired effect in cases where DT is built
into the kernel but not in use on the current system (which is a
configuration that gets used) and will remove error handling for non-DT
systems that do have regulators set up.  There's not the relationship
between this and DT that you seem think there is...

Besides, if we're going to do a bodge like that we should do it in the
core and not in individual callers.


Then it appears the only remedy at this time is to revert the patch.
