Similar to gpiochip_generic_request() and gpiochip_generic_free() the gpiochip_generic_config() function needs to handle the case where there are no pinctrl pins mapped to the GPIOs, usually through the gpio-ranges device tree property. Commit f34fd6ee1be8 ("gpio: dwapb: Use generic request, free and set_config") set the .set_config callback to gpiochip_generic_config() in the dwapb GPIO driver so the GPIO API can set pinctrl configuration for the corresponding pins. Most boards using the dwapb driver do not set the gpio-ranges device tree property though, and in this case gpiochip_generic_config() would return -EPROPE_DEFER rather than the previous -ENOTSUPP return value. This in turn makes gpio_set_config_with_argument_optional() fail and propagate the error to any driver requesting GPIOs.
