[PATCH V2] regulator: disable supply regulator if it is enabled for boot-on

From: Laxman Dewangan
Date: Wed Aug 29 2012 - 11:14:47 EST


If supply regulator is enabled because of boot-on (not always-on)
then disable regulator need to be call if regulator have some
user or full constraint has been enabled.
This will make sure that reference count of supply regulator
is in sync with child regulator's state.

Changes from V1:
Rabin reported that the nested locking trace is getting generated.
This is because the regulator lock mutex and disable himself and then
call for supply disable which again lock the regulator lock.
Probably because both lock is taken from regulator structure in nested
manner, the trace is getting generated.
Rewritten patch to avoid nested locking.
