Gah, I tested that patch with CONFIG_GPIO_PCH=Y, but not as a module.
I see three options here; revert the patch now and fix it up in v3.4,
add exports for those two symbols, or disable building that code as a
module (patch below).  Personally I prefer the third option for the
immediate fix.

Subject: [PATCH] gpio/pch: Fix build failure when selected as a module

x86_64 allmodconfig fails like this:

ERROR: "handle_edge_irq" [drivers/gpio/gpio-pch.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "irq_to_desc" [drivers/gpio/gpio-pch.ko] undefined!

This patch fixes the issue by not allowing gpio-pch.c to be built as a
module.  It can be reenabled when the core interrupt handling code
exports the missing symbols, but that change needs some review first.
