As previously stated, the individual pins have possible other functions
than GPIO. When these functions are added, the driver will need pinctrl
functinality. This was accepted by Linux Walleij.

I assume its not in there for a reason.

Anyway, I have changed the code to use <linux/bitfield.h> directly, so
this is now gone.

I can add a constant.

Checkpatch complains about ENOTSUPP:

# ENOTSUPP is not a standard error code and should be avoided in new patches.
# Folks usually mean EOPNOTSUPP (also called ENOTSUP), when they type ENOTSUPP.

This need not go to user space, as one use-case is using the pin as a
i2c mux. In this case no signs of the error condition is recorded, it
just doesn't work. So I concur it is not noise, it is sign of an
erroneous situation which should be fixed, IMHO.

The message makes it easy to locate the issue, if any. The message will
not occur on a properly configured system.

Lets have the maintainer make the call.

Thank you, I prefer the current form.

I can make that one line.

Yes, they are.

I fixed the use of OF api's - that was surely an oversight.

I have searched for a suitable API without finding one. The closest
thing was the parsing of "gpio-reserved-ranges" in gpiolib-of.c, but
that was coded directly. So I think this might not be of general use.

If it is, lets do that after the driver is merged.

I have eliminated the local variable - its only in the bank structure.

The pins are (by earlier reviews) separated in distinct input and output
banks. (All variants have both).

Good catch, I'll apply that.

Sorry, forgot to remove that. Gone!

I'll change that to "==", thanks.

Thank you for your continued interest in improving the driver. I hope
you'll find the next version palatable.
