Hi Vasily,

Thank you for the patch.

There could be other errors such as -EBUSY or -EPERM. The following
would ensure a message gets printed in those cases, while avoiding
spamming the kernel log in the EPROBE_DEFER case.

	if (IS_ERR(anx6345->dvdd12)) {
		if (PTR_ERR(anx6345->dvdd12) != -EPROBE_DEFER)
			DRM_ERROR("Failed to get dvdd12 supply (%d)\n",
				  PTR_ERR(anx6345->dvdd12));
		return PTR_ERR(anx6345->dvdd12);
	}

But maybe it's overkill ? With or without that change (for the second
regulator below too),
