[PATCH] regulator: Fix recursive mutex lockdep warning

[Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>]

A recursive lockdep warning occurs if you call
regulator_set_optimum_mode() on a regulator with a supply because
there is no nesting annotation for the rdev->mutex. To avoid this
warning, get the supply's load before locking the regulator's
mutex to avoid grabbing the same class of lock twice.

=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]

swapper/0/1 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&rdev->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c036e9e0>] regulator_get_voltage+0x18/0x38

but task is already holding lock:
 (&rdev->mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<c036ef38>] regulator_set_optimum_mode+0x24/0x224

other info that might help us debug this:
 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

  lock(&rdev->mutex);
  lock(&rdev->mutex);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

 May be due to missing lock nesting notation

I'm not sure if this is the preferred solution. I also believe there is a
similar warning in regulator_enable()/disable() when drms_uA_update() is
called.

Is anything wrong with regulator_get_voltage() never taking the mutex?
If we did that then this lockdep warning would go away in addition to the
one in drms_uA_update().
