regulator: core: Track dangling GPIO descriptors
If a GPIO descriptor is passed to the regulator_register() function inside the config->ena_gpiod callers must be sure that once they call this API the regulator core owns that descriptor and will make sure to issue gpiod_put() on it, no matter whether the call is successful or not. For device tree regulators, the regulator core will automatically set up regulator init data from the device tree when registering a regulator by calling regulator_of_get_init_data() which in turn calls down to the regulator driver's .of_parse_cb() callback. This callback (in drivers such as for max77686) may also choose to fill in the config->ena_gpiod field with a GPIO descriptor. Harden the errorpath of regulator_register() to properly gpiod_put() any passed in cfg->ena_gpiod or any gpiod coming from the device tree on any type of error.
