[PATCH 2/2] regulator: vctrl: Avoid lockdep warning in enable/disable ops

vctrl_enable() and vctrl_disable() call regulator_enable() and
regulator_disable(), respectively. However, vctrl_* are regulator ops
and should not be calling the locked regulator APIs. Doing so results in
a lockdep warning.

Instead of exporting more internal regulator ops, model the ctrl supply
as an actual supply to vctrl-regulator. At probe time this driver still
needs to use the consumer API to fetch its constraints, but otherwise
lets the regulator core handle the upstream supply for it.

The enable/disable/is_enabled ops are not removed, but now only track
state internally. This preserves the original behavior with the ops
being available, but one could argue that the original behavior was
already incorrect: the internal state would not match the upstream
supply if that supply had another consumer that enabled the supply,
while vctrl-regulator was not enabled.

The lockdep warning is as follows:

Mark,

checkpatch.pl gives a few style check issues about parenthesis alighment
around regulator_set_voltage_rdev() invocations, which were the result of
the previous switch over from regulator_set_voltage() to
regulator_set_voltage_rdev().

Not sure if you want those fixed up in the same patch, or maybe in a
followup one?
