From: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit b84000f2274520f73ac9dc59fd9403260b61c4e7 upstream. pmbus_regulator_get_status() acquires update_lock. pmbus_regulator_get_error_flags() acquires it again, resulting in an immediate deadlock. Call _pmbus_get_flags() from pmbus_regulator_get_status() directly to avoid the problem.
