[PATCH] soc: imx: gpcv2: fix regulator deferred probe

If a regulator requests a deferred probe, the power domain gets
initialized twice. This leads to a list double add (without
list debugging the kernel hangs due to the double add later):

  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 19 at lib/list_debug.c:31 __list_add_valid+0xbc/0xc4
  list_add double add: new=c1229754, prev=c12383b4, next=c1229754.

Initialize the power domain after we get the regulator. Also do
not print an error in case the regulator defers probing.

Hi Shawn,

Since this leads to a Kernel hang in v4.13-rc3, can you get this
into v4.13 still?
