Subject: [PATCH] PM / Domains: Release mutex when powering on master domain

Commit ba2bbfbf6307 (PM / Domains: Remove intermediate states from the
power off sequence) removed the mutex_unlock()/_lock() around powering on
a genpd's master domain in __genpd_poweron().

Since all genpd's share a mutex lockdep class, this causes a "possible
recursive locking detected" lockdep warning on boot when trying to power
on a genpd slave domain:

Fix this by releasing the slaves mutex before acquiring the master's,
which restores the old behavior.
