Re: [PATCH V4 2/6] MIPS: Move Loongson GPIO driver to drivers/gpio

Hi, Ralf and Alexandre,

So, I need three patches: clean up, move to drivers/gpio, and improve it to support Loonson-3A/3B?

As the arch maintainer I'm happy to say farewell to driver code in arch/mips.

Also, can we split the whole procedure into two patches, one for the cleanup
