Note that this is a RFC patch and not meant to be merged. I looked into
a problem with linux-next-20221110 on the Qualcomm SA8540P automotive
board (sc8280xp) where the UFS host controller would fail to probe due
to repeated probe deferrals when trying to get reset-gpios via
devm_gpiod_get_optional().
of_get_named_gpiod_flags() returns -EPROBE_DEFER, which is caused by
of_gpiochip_match_node_and_xlate() returning 0 since the of_xlate function
pointer is not set for the qcom,sc8280xp-tlmm pinctrl driver. The
pinctrl driver doesn't define one, so of_gpiochip_add() should
automatically setup of_gpio_simple_xlate() on it's behalf. This doesn't
happen since the fwnode member on the struct gpiochip is set to null
when of_gpiochip_add() is called. Let's work around this by ensuring
that it's set if available.
Note that this broke sometime within the last few weeks within
linux-next and I haven't bisected this. I'm posting this in the hopes
that someone may know offhand which patch(es) may have broken this.
