When looking up a regulator through its OF node, probe it if it hasn't

The goal is to reduce deferred probes to a minimum, as it makes it very
cumbersome to find out why a device failed to probe, and can introduce
very big delays in when a critical device is probed.
Still the same problem as we had before with this stuff, why is this DT
only?

And why the assumption that this is a platform device?
