From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx> Accessing struct gpio_chip backing a GPIO device is only allowed for the actual providers of that chip. Similarly to how we introduced gpio_device_find() in order to replace the abused gpiochip_find(), let's introduce a counterpart to gpiod_to_chip() that returns a reference to the GPIO device owning the descriptor. This is done in order to later remove gpiod_to_chip() entirely.
