[PATCH 6/7] regulator: core: Avoid propagating to supplies when possible

[Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org>]

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.
