    If it won't compile w/o gpiolib, what's the use of COMIPLE_TEST?
    And no, it shouldn't depend on gpiolib. It has empty stubs for the case of CONFIG_GPIOLIB=n. Obviously something is wrong with the GPIO headers, I'll look into it.

Yes. When GPIOLIB is disabled, the build issue don't happen.

   What? It surely does happen!

because include/linux/gpio/consumer.h implement the dummy function
for all gpio functions if CONFIG_GPIOLIB is disabled.

   Linus W. advised to #include this header explicitly -- I'll try and post.

For correct operation of max3355, you should add the dependency
to the extcon-max3355.c driver. This driver use the GPIO library
certainly.

I disagree. The driver will just cease to load in this case. I don't see why we need such dependency. Only compilation time dependencies should be
specified, I think.

COMPILE_TEST is used for just build test. You can see the detailed data[1].

   I know. Re-read my question please.
