I am fine with using nr-gpios property now, but I guess BG2Q also
has that CONFIG[1,2] registers to actually read out the features
synthesized in? If I find some time, I'll prepare a patch for
dw-apb-gpio to exploit that (optional) information instead of
using nr-gpios.

The problem is CONFIG1/2 registers don't exist on some versions.
For example, the version used in BG2/BG2CD. So nr-gpio is necessary
if we want to support these versions.

Hmm, are you sure about BG2? I remember reading it and it contains
sane values. Anyway, a proper patch for dw-apb-gpio would include
checking for sane (e.g. non-zero) values. And nr-gpios will always
stay as fall-back just because e.g. sunxi does not have the CONFIG
registers.

Shouldn't that be use nr-gpios and if not available, read the CONFIG
registers? Else, what about bogus registers ?

Probably, it is a better idea to only look for CONFIG registers if
nr-gpios is not set. Anyway, I'll really have to find more time first ;)
