Please don't send upstream things to my work address, it's unlikely to
get read normally.

To repeat what I said off-list the lockdep splat looks like yet another
case of lockdep generating false positives by being unable to work out
that two different instances of objects of the same type are different
objects.  

Without more information on the system you're looking at, especially
what regulators are involved and how they are related it's hard to tell
what's going on as a result, getting some trace from the tracepoints
would be more useful.  Nothing obvious is jumping out from the code.
