[PATCH] Revert "gpio: Revert regression in sysfs-gpio (gpiolib.c)"

[Bartosz Golaszewski <brgl@xxxxxxxx>]

This reverts commit fc328a7d1fcce263db0b046917a66f3aa6e68719.

This commit - while attempting to fix a regression - has caused a number
of other problems. As the fallout from it is more significant than the
initial problem itself, revert it for now before we find a correct
solution.
