[PATCH] regulator: cancel disable_work synchronously in regulator_unregister()

[Chengyu Liu]

regulator_unregister() stops rdev->disable_work with
flush_work(&dw->work), which is a no-op for a delayed_work pending on
the timer wheel: flush_work() only waits for a queued or running work
item.  A disable deferred by a consumer's regulator_disable_deferred()
therefore survives the provider's unbind, and regulator_disable_work()
fires after device_unregister() has freed the rdev, dereferencing it
via container_of().  Use-after-free.

The in-tree users are ASoC DAPM regulator widgets with a 20 ms
power-down delay (sound/soc/soc-dapm.c): the window is the entire
deferral period, not a race between adjacent instructions.

Use cancel_delayed_work_sync(), which also dequeues a timer-pending
instance, waits for a running callback and blocks re-arming.

Found by static analysis.
