Subject: [PATCH v2 1/7] regulator/core: regulator_lock_nested: remove `lock`

`lock` is only false when the `rdev` is already locked and the owner is
`current`. In this case `ret` is always zero. By removing `lock`, we
thus remove `mutex_owner` write avoidance, but make the code flow more
understandable.
