This patch is unfortunately a bit confusing for me. - It is named ARM: something but doesn't affect the arch/arm/* hierarchy. Just use gpio: xlilinx: ... - It changes a lot of stuff all over and has a very terse commit message which does not seem to have too much to do with the changes made. It looks a bit like something from a corporate tree.
These are patches which we have in Xilinx tree as you see from 2012. Origin driver was added in 2008. It will be the best to rewrite it to new style because this driver is quite old. Thanks, Michal

Ok, I'll give rewriting the drivers a shot.
I'll be sending you something you can comment on as soon as I have it.

Regards,
Alexander
