<id>d35028340d751c352234438bfa9a9c58ead74853</id>
<content type='text'>
Named initializers are better readable and more robust to changes of the
struct definition. This robustness is relevant for a planned change to
struct platform_device_id replacing .driver_data by an anonymous unit.

While touching these arrays unify spacing and usage of commas.

<title>regulator: max14577: Add error check for max14577_read_reg()</title>

The function max14577_reg_get_current_limit() calls the function
max14577_read_reg(), but does not check its return value. A proper
implementation can be found in max14577_get_online().

Add a error check for the max14577_read_reg() and return error code
if the function fails.

<title>regulator: Set PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS for drivers that existed in 4.14</title>

<id>259b93b21a9ffe5117af4dfb5505437e463c6a5a</id>
<content type='text'>
Probing of regulators can be a slow operation and can contribute to
slower boot times. This is especially true if a regulator is turned on
at probe time (with regulator-boot-on or regulator-always-on) and the
regulator requires delays (off-on-time, ramp time, etc).

While the overall kernel is not ready to switch to async probe by
default, as per the discussion on the mailing lists [1] it is believed
that the regulator subsystem is in good shape and we can move
regulator drivers over wholesale. There is no way to just magically
opt in all regulators (regulators are just normal drivers like
platform_driver), so we set PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS for all
regulators found in 'drivers/regulator' individually.

Given the number of drivers touched and the impossibility to test this
ahead of time, it wouldn't be shocking at all if this caused a
regression for someone. If there is a regression caused by this patch,
it's likely to be one of the cases talked about in [1]. As a "quick
fix", drivers involved in the regression could be fixed by changing
them to PROBE_FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS. That being said, the correct fix
would be to directly fix the problem that caused the issue with async
probe.

The approach here follows a similar approach that was used for the mmc
subsystem several years ago [2]. In fact, I ran nearly the same python
script to auto-generate the changes. The only thing I changed was to
search for "i2c_driver", "spmi_driver", and "spi_driver" in addition
to "platform_driver".

This reverts commit 0da6736ecd10b45e535b100acd58df2db4c099d8.

The MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE already creates proper alias.  Having another
MODULE_ALIAS causes the alias to be duplicated:
