This approach shows inconsistencies and in some boot cycles da7219 fails
to get regulator. Form the logs (below) it shows time gap between the
time we call “platform_device_register(&acp_da7219_regulator);” and when
the regulator actually gets registered.

**print after calling “platform_device_register(&acp_da7219_regulator);”

Alternate and consistent approach to this is pushed by Daniel here:
