This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
iio: magnetometer: ak8975: Fix the error handling in
to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: magnetometer: ak8975: Fix the error handling in
ak8975_power_on()
When the driver fails to enable the regulator 'vid', we will get the
following splat:
[ 79.955610] WARNING: CPU: 5 PID: 441 at drivers/regulator/core.c:2257 _regulator_put+0x3ec/0x4e0
[ 79.959641] RIP: 0010:_regulator_put+0x3ec/0x4e0
[ 79.967570] Call Trace:
[ 79.967773] <TASK>
[ 79.967951] regulator_put+0x1f/0x30
[ 79.968254] devres_release_group+0x319/0x3d0
[ 79.968608] i2c_device_probe+0x766/0x940
Fix this by disabling the 'vdd' regulator when failing to enable 'vid'
regulator.
