If phandles to receiver and/or transmitter regulators for an SFP device
are
found, enable them at probe time.
The driver should unconditionally request whatever power the device
needs.
Ok, I'll use devm_regulator_get_enable() instead then.
What Mark is suggesting will break existing users. So, I'm afraid we
can't proceed with this proposal. Sorry.
