regulator: core: have regulator_dev_lookup() return ERR_PTR-encoded errors

Instead of returning both regulator_dev structure as return value and
auxiliary error code in 'ret' argument, let's switch to using ERR_PTR
encoded values. This makes it more obvious what is going on at call sites.

Also, let's not unlock the mutex in the middle of a loop, but rather break
out and have single unlock path.
