[PATCH v6 19/22] power-supply: Probe power supplies on demand

From: Tomeu Vizoso <hidden>
Date: 2015-09-21 14:04:55
Also in: linux-acpi, linux-arm-kernel, lkml
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

When looking up a power supply through its OF node, probe it if it
hasn't already.

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.
