Hi Marek!
Your DT bindings patch should ideally be in a separate patch and
must be sent to devicetree@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx as well.

Please don't do it like this. Let the consumers decide if they want
to use a certain line as input or output.
Enumerate ALL GPIOs from 0 to N and let a consumer pick
GPIO x and then decide if it will be used as input or output.
Re-enumerating the GPIOs presented from the chip is complicating
things by shuffleing around the local offset (HW numbering)
space.
For GPIOs that are not usable at all, use the
gpio-reserved-ranges = <> property, see gpio.txt
If you want to indicate that some lines can just be used for
input and some can just be used for output and some cannot
be used at all, let the .set_direction_output() and
.set_direction_input() callbacks fail for these pins with
-EINVAL or so.
If these masks cannot be derived from the compatible
strings, then create generic bindings to mark lines
as input-only or output-only in gpio.txt and use the
same syntax as gpio-reserved-ranges, and handle it
in the gpiolib just as with gpio-reserved-ranges, not
in your local driver.
For example gpio-output-only-ranges and
gpio-input-only-ranges.
But first convince us that you really need that.

This is a driver so only #include <linux/gpio/driver.h>
Skip the two above.

You don't need this either. Delete that include.

This looks convoluted and I think will go away with my suggestion to
cut the masks.
Otherwise use primitives such as for_each_set_bit() etc.

So skip this and trust the consumers to ask for the right GPIO and set
it up.
