Hello Michał,

It turns out that commit aea6cb99703e ("regulator: resolve supply
after creating regulator") exposed a number of issues in regulator
initialization and introduced a memory leak of its own. One uncovered
problem was already fixed by cf1ad559a20d ("regulator: defer probe when
trying to get voltage from unresolved supply"). This series fixes the
remaining ones and adds a two debugging aids to help in the future.

The final patch adds a workaround to preexisting problem occurring with
regulators that have the same name as its supply_name. This worked
before by accident, so might be worth backporting. The error message is
left on purpose so that these configurations can be detected and fixed.

(The first two patches are resends from Nov 5).

(Series resent because of wrong arm-kernel ML address.)
lxa-mc1 (STM32MP1 board with STPMIC) now manages to boot again with following
new warning:

  stpmic1-regulator 5c002000.i2c:stpmic@33:regulators: Supply for VREF_DDR

So for the whole series,

Thanks!
Ahmad
