Merge tag 'gpio-v4.4-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.4 development cycle. The only changes hitting outside drivers/gpio are in the pin control subsystem and these seem to have settled nicely in linux-next. Development mistakes and catfights are nicely documented in the reverts as you can see. The outcome of the ABI fight is that we're working on a chardev ABI for GPIO now, where hope to show results for the v4.5 kernel. Summary of changes: GPIO core: - Define and handle flags for open drain/open collector and open source/open emitter, also know as "single-ended" configurations. - Generic request/free operations that handle calling out to the (optional) pin control backend. - Some refactoring related to an ABI change that did not happen, yet provide useful. - Added a real-time compliance checklist. Many GPIO chips have irqchips, and need to think this over with the RT patches going upstream. - Restructure, fix and clean up Kconfig menus a bit. New drivers: - New driver for AMD Promony. - New driver for ACCES 104-IDIO-16, a port-mapped I/O card, ISA-style. Very retro. Subdriver changes: - OMAP changes to handle real time requirements. - Handle trigger types for edge and level IRQs on PL061 properly. As this hardware is very common it needs to set a proper example for others to follow. - Some container_of() cleanups. - Delete the unused MSM driver in favor of the driver that is embedded inside the pin control driver. - Cleanup of the ath79 GPIO driver used by many, many OpenWRT router targets. - A consolidated IT87xx driver replacing the earlier very specific IT8761e driver. - Handle the TI TCA9539 in the PCA953x driver. Also handle ACPI devices in this subdriver. - Drop xilinx arch dependencies as these FPGAs seem to profilate over a few different architectures.

1.1) GPIO specifier best practices
----------------------------------
@@ -118,6 +131,30 @@ Every GPIO controller node must contain both an empty "gpio-controller"
property, and a #gpio-cells integer property, which indicates the number of
cells in a gpio-specifier.
+Optionally, a GPIO controller may have a "ngpios" property. This property
+indicates the number of in-use slots of available slots for GPIOs. The
+typical example is something like this: the hardware register is 32 bits
+wide, but only 18 of the bits have a physical counterpart. The driver is
+generally written so that all 32 bits can be used, but the IP block is reused
+in a lot of designs, some using all 32 bits, some using 18 and some using
+12. In this case, setting "ngpios = <18>;" informs the driver that only the
+first 18 GPIOs, at local offset 0 .. 17, are in use.
+
+If these GPIOs do not happen to be the first N GPIOs at offset 0...N-1, an
+additional bitmask is needed to specify which GPIOs are actually in use,
+and which are dummies. The bindings for this case has not yet been
+specified, but should be specified if/when such hardware appears.

+Example:
+
+gpio-controller@00000000 {

+ reg = <0x00000000 0x1000>;

The GPIO chip may contain GPIO hog definitions. GPIO hogging is a mechanism
providing automatic GPIO request and configuration as part of the
gpio-controller's driver probe function.
