Subject: [PATCH 04/15 v3] regulator: lp8788-ldo: Let core handle GPIO descriptor

Use the gpiod_get() rather than the devm_* version so that the
regulator core can handle the lifecycle of these descriptors.

Fixes: 2468f0d51548 ("regulator: lp8788-ldo: Pass descriptor instead of GPIO number")
Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@...aro.org>

ChangeLog v2->v3:
- Resending.
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Drop the gpiod_put() on the errorpath after devm_regulator_register()
  as this will be handled by the regulator core.
- Put a comment in the code so maintainers knows not to
  use managed resources (devm*)
