[PATCH 1/2] mfd: wm8994: Fix driver operation if loaded as modules

[Marek Szyprowski]

WM8994 chip has built-in regulators, which might be used for chip
operation. They are controlled by a separate wm8994-regulator driver,
which should be loaded before this driver calls regulator_get(), because
that driver also provides consumer-supply mapping for the them. If that
driver is not yet loaded, regulator core substitute them with dummy
regulator, what breaks chip operation, because the built-in regulators are
never enabled. Fix this by adding a comment and a call to module_request()
helper.
