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 annotating this driver with MODULE_SOFTDEP() "pre" dependency to "wm8994_regulator" module.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
