regulator: core: fix race condition in regulator_put()
The regulator framework maintains a list of consumer regulators for a regulator device and protects it from concurrent access using the regulator device's mutex lock. In the case of regulator_put() the consumer is removed and regulator device's parameters are updated without holding the regulator device's mutex. This would lead to a race condition between the regulator_put() and any function which traverses the consumer list or modifies regulator device's parameters. Fix this race condition by holding the regulator device's mutex in case of regulator_put.
