[PATCH RESEND 4/4] regulator: workaround self-referent regulators

Workaround regulators whose supply name happens to be the same as its
own name. This fixes boards that used to work before the early supply
resolving was removed. The error message is left in place so that
offending drivers can be detected.

Fixes: aea6cb99703e ("regulator: resolve supply after creating regulator")
