More description is required here. How does it fail. Please describe the problem fully. MMCI should work without regulator support.

If CONFIG_REGULATOR is not set with the patch reverted, the regulator support is not used at all, and the ocrmask comes from the platform data.

I think the point is that case of DT booting, the platform data has a zero ocrmask, because Versatile Express has no auxdata to set a platform_data pointer for the mmci device, and the default allocated mmci device driver does not initialize the ocrmask unless the regulator API is used. This took me a while to figure out, the point being that this is not actually a regression, it never worked as far as I can tell. I don't think that selecting the regulator API is a good idea, for the reasons that you mentioned, and I still wouldn't take the patch. In theory we could do a workaround by adding a DT property to the mmci node that describes the fixed voltage supplied to the card if there are no regulators, but then again we already describe the voltage using the regulator binding and I would not want to duplicate that information. What I think we should have though is a better diagnostic here: If neither the platform data nor the DT contain a valid description of the voltage supplied to the card, the probe should fail saying that the information is missing, not that the card is incompatible.

If mmci during probe, don't get a regulator and don't have an OCR mask from dt/platform data, probe should fail. Kind regards Ulf Hansson
Hi Arnd, Olof, These are two fixes for small problems with VE that has been brought to my attention recently. It would be great to get them pulled into one of the 3.9-rcX, but as they are not really critical they could wait till 3.10 if you feel it's the best thing to do. Thanks!
