Use #include <linux/gpio/driver.h> instead.

Add kerneldoc to this struct.

We are doing away with this, but I can fix up the driver by a separate
patch later of we merge it.

So aren't these load/recovery times dependent on the device?
I think these should come from the compatible string.

Just return 1, GPIOF_DIR_IN is for the external API.

This looks like a good reason to implement .get_multiple() in the
same way that we have .set_multiple(), so you agree?

But it's not like I'm requiring you to engineer all that. Just an
academic reflection of the fact.

To match and get a pointer to a compatible-string-specific data variant,
look at the example in drivers/mfd/tc3589x.c

As I wrote elsewhere, should come from the variant data, based on the
compatible string. ngpios is in case you're not using all of them and
need to restrict the number of used GPIOs. Usually this only applies to
on-SoC GPIOs that are unrouted.

Reset gpio? Really? Load GPIO?

Apart from that it looks good.
