[PATCH] regulator: fix: enable gpio when requested

[Lukasz Majewski]

Hi Mark,

> The fix in commit b7adcdd073c0 has the side-effect that the regulator
> will be disabled when requesting the relevant gpio in
> regulator_common_ofdata_to_platdata() and enabled in
> regulator_pre_probe() when the regulator was already enabled.
> This leads to a short interruption in the 3.3V power to the PCIe
> slot on the firefly-rk3399 which makes an ADATA SX8000NP NVMe SSD
> unhappy.
> 
> Fix this by setting the GPIOD_IS_OUT_ACTIVE flag again when the
> 'regulator-boot-on' property is set, but check for this property
> explicitly instead of relying on the "boot_on" member of
> the uclass platdata.

Sorry, but this is a simple revert of my commit and breaks use cases
described in the commit message of this fix.

Do you see some kind of "glitch" on the gpio in
regulator_common_of_platdata?

The regulator-boot-on property [1] shall prevent from the issue you
described in the commit message of this revert.
