regulator: core: correct convergence check in regulator_set_voltage()
The logic in regulator_set_voltage() which checks for a non-convergence
condition on a stepped regulator is flawed.
regulator_set_voltage() checks if the error in target voltage has increased
or decreased, and returns -EWOULDBLOCK if the error has not decreased
enough. The correct non-convergence condition is:
new_delta - delta > -rdev->constraints->max_uV_step
or equivalently:
delta - new_delta < rdev->constraints->max_uV_step
But the currently used condition is:
new_delta - delta > rdev->constraints->max_uV_step
Which may cause an infinite loop if the voltage error doesn't converge.
Fix this by correcting the convergence condition.
