I'm currently based on Tony's devel-cleanup branch (which is v2.6.39-rc4-...)
this is what twl4030-gpio.c does:

status = pdata->setup(&pdev->dev,
                pdata->gpio_base, TWL4030_GPIO_MAX);
if (status)
            dev_dbg(&pdev->dev, "setup --> %d\n", status);

so yes it is just an error print.

Right, a sanity check only...
I guess each time 256 is not enough it just gets bumped up...
This can be a problem some day...
May be it should be a part of struct gpio_chip so the responsibility for
gpio validity will be on the driver in charge of that gpio?
But that is totally different discussion.

Regarding:

I thought Mayuresh checked this and confirmed, no?
