Bah, I was going for compartmentalization.
It make sense if you don't think about it ..... :)

Given that it is meant for gpiochip_add, how about
_gpiochip_scan_hogs()?

_gpiochip_hog is a void function given that __gpiod_hog() is the last call of that loop
there is nothing to propagate. 
You would still want to scan all of the child node regardless of errors, no?

Agreed, any name request while I am at it or tis this fine as is?

I can split the functionality out but I do not understand why in this case using
gpiod_request would prevent module from being unloaded?
Isn't gpiochip_remove() part of a gpio module unload sequence?

Because then the _gpiochip_unhog() would release these descriptors. Am I missing something?
Also would using gpiochip_request_own_desc() basically allow the very same hogged GPIO to be
requested later on by a consumer.

I thought we did not want that to be possible?
