A cleaner way would be to set vga->vdd to NULL here, and do:

	int ret = 0;

	if (vga->vdd)
		ret = regulator_enable(vga->vdd);

	if (ret) {
		...
		return;
	}

	/* if a gpio is added later */
	if (vga->gpio)
		ret = gpiod_set_value_cansleep(vga->gpio, 1);

	if (ret) {
		...
		return;
	}
	...

We don't really care what error code is contained in vga->vdd once we have
identified whether we got a regulator or not.

The same thing can be done for ddc too, but that can done left for later.

If you're okay with the suggestion, can you re-spin a patch?

Thanks,
