Now that coldfire is the only user of a custom asm/gpio.h, it seems
better to remove this as well, and have the same interface everywhere.
For the gpio_get_value()/gpio_set_value()/gpio_to_irq(), gpio_cansleep()
functions, the custom version is only a micro-optimization to inline the
function for constant GPIO numbers. However, in the coldfire defconfigs,
I was unable to find a single instance where this micro-optimization
was even used, so to my best knowledge removing this has no downsides.
The only user seems to be QSPI chip select handling (not bit-banged
data transfer) in arch/m68k/coldfire/device.c, but that indeed depends
on CONFIG_SPI_COLDFIRE_QSPI, which is not set in any of the defconfigs.
That doesn't mean there were/are no real users, though ;-)
The custom gpio_request_one() function is even less useful, as it is
guarded by an #ifdef that is never true.
