Vincent Whitchurch a8ce7bd896 regulator: core: Fix off_on_delay handling
The jiffies-based off_on_delay implementation has a couple of problems
that cause it to sometimes not actually delay for the required time:

 (1) If, for example, the off_on_delay time is equivalent to one jiffy,
     and the ->last_off_jiffy is set just before a new jiffy starts,
     then _regulator_do_enable() does not wait at all since it checks
     using time_before().

 (2) When jiffies overflows, the value of "remaining" becomes higher
     than "max_delay" and the code simply proceeds without waiting.

Fix these problems by changing it to use ktime_t instead.

[Note that since jiffies doesn't start at zero but at INITIAL_JIFFIES
 ("-5 minutes"), (2) above also led to the code not delaying if
 the first regulator_enable() is called when the ->last_off_jiffy is not
 initialised, such as for regulators with ->constraints->boot_on set.
 It's not clear to me if this was intended or not, but I've preserved
 this behaviour explicitly with the check for a non-zero ->last_off.]
