The regulator_init_complete_work logic defers the cleanup for an
arbitrary 30 seconds of time to allow modules loaded by userland
to start.

This arbitrary timeout is similar to the
driver_deferred_probe_timeout value, and its been suggested we
align these so users have a method to extend the timeouts as
needed.

So this patch changes the logic to use the
driver_deferred_probe_timeout value if it is set, otherwise we
directly call the regulator_init_complete_work_function().

Why not schedule_delayed_work(..., 0) in this case, to get it off the
initcall context and to avoid the difference in execution paths?
