[PATCH v4] regulator: core: Limit propagation of parent voltage count and list

[Matthias Kaehlcke]

Commit 26988efe11b1 ("regulator: core: Allow to get voltage count and
list from parent") introduces the propagation of the parent voltage
count and list for regulators that don't provide this information
themselves. The goal is to support simple switch regulators, however as
a side effect normal continuous regulators can leak details of their
supplies and provide consumers with inconsistent information.

Limit the propagation of the voltage count and list to switch
regulators.

Fixes: 26988efe11b1 ("regulator: core: Allow to get voltage count and
  list from parent")

Changes in v4:
- Removed redundant check of .get_voltage_sel (implicitly done by .list_voltage check)
- Added 'Fixes' tag to commit message

Changes in v3:
- Removed unused variable ops from regulator_count_voltages()
- Updated commit message to use correct format for referencing commits

Changes in v2:
- Added flag 'is_switch' that indicates if regulator is a switch
- Reworked conditions checking for switch to evaluate the new flag
