Subject: [PATCH] regulator: core: fix UAF in destroy_regulator()

I got a UAF report as following:

==================================================================

Here is how happened:

processor A					processor B
regulator_register()
  rdev_init_debugfs()
    rdev->debugfs = debugfs_create_dir()
						devm_regulator_get()
						  rdev = regulator_dev_lookup()
						  create_regulator(rdev)
						    // using rdev->debugfs as parent
						    debugfs_create_dir(rdev->debugfs)

mfd_remove_devices_fn()
  release_nodes()
    regulator_unregister()
      // free rdev->debugfs
      debugfs_remove_recursive(rdev->debugfs)
						release_nodes()
						  destroy_regulator()
						    debugfs_remove_recursive() <- causes UAF

In devm_regulator_get(), after getting rdev, the refcount
is get, so fix this by moving debugfs_remove_recursive()
to regulator_dev_release(), then it can be proctected by
the refcount, the 'rdev->debugfs' can not be freed until
the refcount is 0.
