[PATCH] regulator: core: fix possible NULL dereference

From: Sudip Mukherjee
Date: Wed Sep 02 2015 - 06:44:18 EST


We were checking rdev->supply for NULL after dereferencing it. Lets
check for rdev->supply along with _regulator_is_enabled() and call
regulator_enable() only if rdev->supply is not NULL.
