[PATCH v2] ARM: OMAP1: ams-delta: Fix MODEM initialization failure

Regulator drivers were modified to use asynchronous device probe.  Since
then, the board .init_late hook fails to acquire a GPIO based fixed
regulator needed by an on-board voice MODEM device, and unregisters the
MODEM.  That in turn triggers a so far not discovered bug of device
unregister function called for a device with no associated release() op.

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at drivers/base/core.c:2486 device_release+0x98/0xa8
Device 'serial8250.1' does not have a release() function, it is broken and
 must be fixed. See Documentation/core-api/kobject.rst.

ams_delta_init_late from init_machine_late+0x1c/0x94
init_machine_late from do_one_initcall+0x60/0x1d4

As a consequence, ASoC CODEC driver is no longer able to control its
device over the voice MODEM's tty interface.

The regulator hangs of a GPIO pin controlled by basic-mmio-gpio driver.
Unlike most GPIO drivers, that driver doesn't probe for devices before
device_initcall, then GPIO pins under its control are not availabele to
majority of devices probed at that phase, including regulators.  On the
other hand, serial8250 driver used by the MODEM device neither accepts via
platform data nor handles regulators, then the board file is not able to
teach that driver to return -EPROBE_DEFER when the regulator is not ready
so the failed probe is retried after late_initcall.

Resolve the issue by extending description of the MODEM device with a
dedicated power management domain.  Acquire the regulator from the
domain's .activate hook and return -EPROBE_DEFER if the regulator is not
available.  Having that under control, add the regulator device
description to the list of platform devices initialized from .init_machine
and drop the no longer needed custom .init_late hook.

v2: Trim down the warning for prettier git log output (Tony).

Fixes: 259b93b21a9f ("regulator: Set PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS for drivers that existed in 4.14")
