I don't think it's a good idea to add ACPI specifics to generic APIs.

I went through ACPI enabled drivers calling GPIO APIs and majority of
them are doing this:

static int stk8312_gpio_probe(struct i2c_client *client)
{
        struct device *dev;
        struct gpio_desc *gpio;
        int ret;

        if (!client)
                return -EINVAL;

        dev = &client->dev;

        /* data ready gpio interrupt pin */
        gpio = devm_gpiod_get_index(dev, STK8312_GPIO, 0, GPIOD_IN);
        if (IS_ERR(gpio)) {
                dev_err(dev, "acpi gpio get index failed\n");
                return PTR_ERR(gpio);
        }

        ret = gpiod_to_irq(gpio);
        dev_dbg(dev, "GPIO resource, no:%d irq:%d\n", desc_to_gpio(gpio), ret);

        return ret;
}

We can drop all this because I2C core already handles GpioInt -> interrupt
number translation.

Few drivers are doing something more complex but I think we can still convert
them to use acpi_dev_add_driver_gpios() and eventually get rid of the whole
_CRS index lookup.
