GPIO recovery has been added already for some I2C bus drivers, such as imx, pxa and at91. These drivers use similar bindings and have more or less the same code for recovery. For this reason, we aim to move the GPIO bus recovery implementation to the I2C core so that other drivers can benefit from it, with small modifications. This implementation initializes the pinctrl states and the SDA/SCL GPIOs based on common bindings. The I2C bus drivers can still use different bindings or other particular recovery steps if needed. The ugly part with this patch series is the handle of PROBE_DEFER which could be returned by devm_gpiod_get(). This changes things a little for i2c_register_adapter() and for this reason this step is implemented in a sperate patch. The at91 Microchip driver is the first to use this implementation, with an AI to move the rest of the drivers in the following steps.
