Add gpio support for Intel Lynxpoint chipset.
Lynxpoint supports 94 gpio pins which can generate interrupts.
Driver will fail requests for pins that are marked as owned by ACPI, or
set in an alternate mode (non-gpio).

A *lot* of drivers implement their own GPIO ops like this, and they all
end up looking the same. Please take a look at
drivers/gpio/gpio-generic.c and see if you can use the stock operations
provided there.

Look quite similar but turns out the only potential generic ones which could be used are the bgpio_set() and bgpio_get() funtions. Using them would require custom pin2mask, write_reg, read_reg, etc functions.
bgpio_set_direction

I guess using gpio-generic code fits memory mapped devices better. Trying to use it for io port devices would require a lot of code mangling.
