Patch applied.

I went in and attack-patched this driver, see:
commit 4e6fd26dcf5d70a7700a4c15d8f239103bdce91d
"pinctrl: sirf/atlas7: stop poking around in GPIO internals"

I don't know if I may have upset the SirF developers or something,
or if I was an especially big asshole for not noticing the problem I
fixed already in the first iteration of the patch, or if I have done something
else evil, but I just haven't heard from the developers since.

If the problem is me, I'm sorry :(

I would like to have this driver up-to-date and verified working.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
