Hello, This short series enables GPIO state persistence across controller resets, modifying gpiolib to expose control of the behaviour and providing an initial implementation in the Aspeed GPIO controller. This is a follow-up to the initial RFC series[1], which had some undesirable features (and bugs). >From the RFC, I've: 1. Dropped the idea of distinguishing between sleep and reset cases[2] 2. Changed the default behaviour from transitory to persistent (must explicitly request transitory behaviour for controllers supporting reset tolerance)[3] 3. Dropped the ability for userspace to configure whether or not the exported GPIO is persistent[4][5] On point 2, whilst the patch modifying the sysfs interface ABI no-longer lives, gpiolib-sysfs still requires modification to provide consistent behaviour with the chardev interface in providing a default-persistent GPIO on export. Regarding point 3, I figured this is something we can add later once there's been some discussion on how much of a good idea it is. As some of the capabilities in the RFC have been dropped, I've squashed the gpiolib support into a single patch as it's not really that complex. Hopefully that addresses the feedback on the RFC. Please review!
