mfd: Add refcounting support to mfd_cells
This provides convenience functions for sharing of cells across multiple mfd clients. Mfd drivers can provide enable/disable hooks to actually tweak the hardware, and clients can call mfd_shared_cell_{en,dis}able without having to worry about whether or not another client happens to have enabled or disabled the cell/hardware. Note that this is purely optional; drivers can continue to use the mfd_cell's enable/disable hooks for their own purposes, if desired.
