[PATCH v2] regulator: da9211: Use irq handler when ready

From: Ricardo Ribalda
Date: Sun Nov 27 2022 - 16:06:22 EST


If the system does not come from reset (like when it is kexec()), the
regulator might have an IRQ waiting for us.

If we enable the IRQ handler before its structures are ready, we crash.

This patch fixes:
