Subject: [RFC][PATCH 4.4-stable] regulator: core: Ensure we lock all regulators

It seems upstream commit 49a6bb7a1c09 ("regulator: core: Ensure
we lock all regulators"), was missed when considering tagging
for -stable.

Without this varient of that patch (the original doesn't apply,
due to a later fix to the same which was backported), I see
double-unlock lockdep splats in the v4.4.8 based HiKey kernel.

CC: stable <stable@...r.kernel.org> # 4.4 only (I think)
