[PATCH V3] regulator: disable supply regulator if it is enabled for boot-on

From: Laxman Dewangan
Date: Mon Sep 03 2012 - 10:48:51 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.

Changes from v2:
The patch 1 does not handle the case where a regulator is not set boot_on
but is considered on (for example, because of the lack of an is_enabled
callback), and is later actually enabled by a consumer before
regulator_init_complete().
So here I added the flag to track if the supply is enabled during registration.
