Eugen,

This does resolve the issue that occurs after your refcount series [1].

However after thinking about this more and seeing Marek's responses
this wasn't an issue of multiple consumers sharing the same regulator.
Instead this particular issue was that the vbus regulator is getting
enabled twice without being disabled. Adding a print in
regulator_set_enable shows me:
--- a/drivers/power/regulator/regulator-uclass.c
+++ b/drivers/power/regulator/regulator-uclass.c
@@ -165,6 +165,7 @@ int regulator_set_enable(struct udevice *dev, bool enable)
        struct dm_regulator_uclass_plat *uc_pdata;
        int ret, old_enable = 0;

+printf("%s %s %s\n", __func__, dev->name, enable ? "enable" : "disable");
        if (!ops || !ops->set_enable)
                return -ENOSYS;

u-boot=> usb start
starting USB...
Bus usb at 32e40000: regulator_set_enable regulator-usb-otg1 enable
^^^ from ehci_usb_probe
Bus usb at 32e50000: regulator_set_enable regulator-usb-otg2 enable
^^^ from ehci_usb_probe
regulator_set_enable regulator-usb-otg2 enable
^^^ from mx6_init_after_reset - 2nd enable without a disable

So while I think this patch does make sense to cover the case where a
regulator could be shared there probably is a follow-on patch needed
to balance the regulator calls (unrelated to your series).

Marek,

Should vbus regulator enable really be in init_after_reset call?

Best Regards,

Tim
