Subject: [PATCH 5.4 097/132] regulator: push allocations in create_regulator() outside of lock

From: Michał Mirosław <mirq-linux@...e.qmqm.pl>

commit 87fe29b61f9522a3d7b60a4580851f548558186f upstream.

Move all allocations outside of the regulator_lock()ed section.

======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
5.7.13+ #535 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
f2fs_discard-179:7/702 is trying to acquire lock:
c0e5d920 (regulator_list_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: regulator_lock_dependent+0x54/0x2c0

but task is already holding lock:
cb95b080 (&dcc->cmd_lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: __issue_discard_cmd+0xec/0x5f8

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

[...]

-> #3 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}-{0:0}:
       fs_reclaim_acquire.part.11+0x40/0x50
       fs_reclaim_acquire+0x24/0x28
       __kmalloc_track_caller+0x54/0x218
       kstrdup+0x40/0x5c
       create_regulator+0xf4/0x368
       regulator_resolve_supply+0x1a0/0x200
       regulator_register+0x9c8/0x163c

[...]

other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  regulator_list_mutex --> &sit_i->sentry_lock --> &dcc->cmd_lock

[...]
