regulator: core: Fix application of "drop lockdep annotation in drms_uA_update()"
[The original commit was sent against -next but needed to be sent as a bugfix, however -next had some additional changes which needed to be reverted. Now everything is all in one branch applying the rest of the changes to fix up the merge issue -- broonie] commit e5e21f70bfd3 ("regulator: core: Take lock before applying system load") took the regulator lock before calling drms_uA_update() in order to silence a lockdep warning during regulator_register(). However, we are not supposed to need locks at this point as the regulator is in the process of being registered, so there should be no possibility of concurrent access. Instead, remove the unnecessary locking and simply drop the lockdep annotation, since it is no longer valid.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
