regmap: Disable debugfs when locking is disabled
The recently added support for disabling the regmap internal locking left debugfs enabled for devices with the locking disabled. This is a problem since debugfs allows userspace to do things like initiate reads from the hardware which will use the scratch buffers protected by the regmap locking so could cause data corruption. For safety address this by just disabling debugfs for these devices. That is overly conservative since some of the debugfs files just read internal data structures but it's much simpler to implmement and less likely to lead to problems with tooling that works with debugfs.
