regulator: push allocation in regulator_init_coupling() outside of lock
commit 73a3212 upstream.
Allocating memory with regulator_list_mutex held makes lockdep unhappy
when memory pressure makes the system do fs_reclaim on eg. eMMC using
a regulator. Push the lock inside regulator_init_coupling() after the
allocation.

WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

------------------------------------------------------
kswapd0/383 is trying to acquire lock:
cca78ca4 (&sbi->write_io[i][j].io_rwsem){++++}-{3:3}, at: __submit_merged_write_cond+0x104/0x154
but task is already holding lock:
c0e38518 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: __fs_reclaim_acquire+0x0/0x50
which lock already depends on the new lock.
the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
-> #2 (fs_reclaim){+.+.}-{0:0}:
fs_reclaim_acquire.part.11+0x40/0x50
fs_reclaim_acquire+0x24/0x28
__kmalloc+0x54/0x218
regulator_register+0x860/0x1584

other info that might help us debug this:
Chain exists of:
&sbi->write_io[i][j].io_rwsem --> regulator_list_mutex --> fs_reclaim
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1

lock(fs_reclaim);
