commit cb3543cff9 upstream.
When updating the operating mode as part of regulator enable, the caller
has already locked the regulator tree and drms_uA_update() must not try
to do the same in order not to trigger a deadlock.
The lock inversion is reported by lockdep as:
======================================================
WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
6.1.0-next-20221215 #142 Not tainted
------------------------------------------------------
udevd/154 is trying to acquire lock:
ffffc11f123d7e50 (regulator_list_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: regulator_lock_dependent+0x54/0x280
but task is already holding lock:
ffff80000e4c36e8 (regulator_ww_class_acquire){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: regulator_enable+0x34/0x80
which lock already depends on the new lock.

Possible unsafe locking scenario:

lock(regulator_ww_class_acquire);
lock(regulator_list_mutex);

lock(regulator_list_mutex);
*** DEADLOCK ***
just before probe of a Qualcomm UFS controller (occasionally) deadlocks
when enabling one of its regulators.
