UPSTREAM: gpio: add a data pointer to gpio_chip
This adds a void * pointer to gpio_chip so that driver can assign and retrieve some states. This is done to get rid of container_of() calls for gpio_chips embedded inside state containers, so we can remove the need to have the gpio_chip or later (planned) struct gpio_device be dynamically allocated at registration time, so that its struct device can be properly reference counted and not bound to its parent device (e.g. a platform_device) but instead live on after unregistration if it is opened by e.g. a char device or sysfs. The data is added with the new function gpiochip_add_data() and for compatibility we add static inline wrapper function gpiochip_add() that will call gpiochip_add_data() with NULL as argument. The latter will be removed once we have exorcised gpiochip_add() from the kernel. gpiochip_get_data() is added as a static inline accessor for drivers to quickly get their data out.
