From: Michał Mirosław <mirq-linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 4b639e254d3d4f15ee4ff2b890a447204cfbeea9 upstream. When a regulator's name equals its supply's name the regulator_resolve_supply() recurses indefinitely. Add a check so that debugging the problem is easier. The "fixed" commit just exposed the problem.
