From fb6de923ca3358a91525552b4907d4cb38730bdd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yu Zhao Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2018 15:30:51 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] regulator: fix crash caused by null driver data dev_set_drvdata() needs to be called before device_register() exposes device to userspace. Otherwise kernel crashes after it gets null pointer from dev_get_drvdata() when userspace tries to access sysfs entries.
