3.5.7.9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ben Hutchings <ben at decadent.org.uk>
Commit 3e78080f8148 ('hwmon: (sht15) Check return value of
regulator_enable()') depends on the use of devm_kmalloc() for automatic
resource cleanup in the failure cases, which was introduced in 3.7. In
older stable branches, explicit cleanup is needed.
