[PATCH v6 15/22] power_supply: Increment power supply use counter when obtaining references

[Krzysztof Kozlowski <k.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Increment the power_supply.use_cnt usage counter on:
 - power_supply_get_by_phandle()
 - power_supply_get_by_name()
and decrement it on power_supply_put() call.

This helps tracking of valid usage of power supply instance by
consumers. The usage counter itself also allows safe calling of
power_supply_get_property-like functions even when driver unregisters
this power supply.
