[PATCH 0/3] Fix compilation issue on regulator_common file

Hello,

If CONFIG_DM_GPIO is not enabled, compilation of
drivers/power/regulator/regulator_common.c  fails with the following
errors:

aarch64-none-linux-gnu-ld: drivers/power/regulator/regulator_common.o: in function `regulator_common_of_to_plat':
<...>/u-boot/drivers/power/regulator/regulator_common.c:30: undefined reference to `gpio_request_by_name'
aarch64-none-linux-gnu-ld: drivers/power/regulator/regulator_common.o: in function `regulator_common_get_enable':
<...>/u-boot/drivers/power/regulator/regulator_common.c:57: undefined reference to `dm_gpio_get_value'
aarch64-none-linux-gnu-ld: drivers/power/regulator/regulator_common.o: in function `regulator_common_set_enable':
<...>/u-boot/drivers/power/regulator/regulator_common.c:92: undefined reference to `dm_gpio_set_value'
make: *** [Makefile:2029: u-boot] Error 139

Since the enable gpio is optional we can conditionally skip these calls.

While at it, use dm_gpio_is_valid() helper function in
regulator_common_get_enable, and remove a debug message that checkpatch
--strict complains about:

  WARNING: Unnecessary ftrace-like logging - prefer using ftrace

The 2 fixes are done before the compilation issue fix in order to easily
cherry-pick them if needed
