regulator: core: Avoid propagating to supplies when possible
When we called regulator_enable() on a regulator we'd end up propagating that call all the way up the chain every time. This is a bit of a waste of time. A child regulator already refcounts its own enables so it should avoid passing on to its parent unless the refcount transitioned between 0 and 1. Historically this hasn't been a huge problem since we skipped dealing with enable for always-on regulators. In a previous patch, however, we removed the always-on optimization. On one system, the debugfs regulator_summary was now showing a "use_count" of 33 for a top-level regulator. Let's implement this optimization. This turns out to be fairly trivial with the recent reorganization of the regulator core. NOTE: as part of this patch I'll make "always-on" regulators start with a use count of 1. This keeps the counts clean when recursively resolving regulators. ALSO NOTE: this commit also contains somewhat of a bug fix to regulator_force_disable(). It was incorrectly looping over "rdev->open_count" when it should have been looping over use_count. We have to touch that code anyway (since we should no longer loop at all), so we'll fix it together in one patch. Also: since this comes after commit f8702f9e ("regulator: core: Use ww_mutex for regulators locking") we can now move to use _regulator_disable() for our supply and keep it in the lock.
