David Brownell 412aec6105 regulator: enable/disable refcounting
Make the <linux/regulator.h> framework treat enable/disable call
pairs like the <linux/clk.h> and <linux/interrupt.h> frameworks do:
they're refcounted, so that different parts of a driver don't need
to put work into coordination that frameworks normally handle.
It's a minor object code shrink.

It also makes the regulator_is_disabled() kerneldoc say what it's
actually returning:  return value is not a refcount, and may report
an error (e.g. I/O error from I2C).

It also fixes some minor regulator_put() goofage:  removing unlocked
access to the enable state.  (But still not making regulator put/get
match the refcounting pattern they invoke.)
