Add code to parse the GPIO expander Device Tree node and extract platform
data out of it, and populate the struct 'pcf857x_platform_data'
maintained by the driver. This enables devices to reference the gpio
expander from Device Tree.

Add DT binding info in Documentation.

- v2 posted after quite a while, sorry for the delay!

Changes in v2:
- second gpeio-cell description corrected in Documentation
- interrupt controller description removed for now, will be added in a
   follow up patch
- n_latch description updated

And it seems that the patch conflicts with

https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/26/248

:-/

:/


If we end up merging this one, I'd like to at least rename the DT n-latch
property to pin-initial-states as in my patch and update the documentation, as
I find it more explicit.

I think your patch is cleaner and more descriptive. The only thing which I am not clear about in your patch is the extra work done in getting ngpio, that should be available in i2c_device_id pointer argument in probe(id points to the array pcf857x_id already available in the driver with the number of gpios for each chip variant).
