regulator: Add devm_regulator_get()

This allows driver authors to "get and forget" about their regulators by automatically calling regulator_put() when the driver is detached. [Fixed up a couple of coding style issues -- broonie] Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@opensource.wolfsonmicro.com>
