RE: [PATCH 2/2] mmc: sdhci: Defer probe if regulator_get fails

[Pavan Kunapuli]

For platforms where the board can control vmmc or vqmmc, if the regulator supplies registration is not done before sdhci probe, deferring sdhci probe would ensure that the regulators are available the next time around. For platforms where the board can't control vmmc or vqmmc, we can have a dummy regulator to make sure probe will never get deferred.

I didn't understand why defer the probe?
I think that some board can't control vqmmc or vmmc.
