Perhaps pin?
Or shift?

Because first_gpio a bit confusing with Linux side of GPIO.

Can't we instead do something like the following:

struct exar_gpio_chip *exar_gpio = gpiochip_get_data(chip);
unsigned int bank = (offset + exar_gpio->pin) / 8;
unsigned int line = (offset + exar_gpio->pin) % 8;

Still thinking about device properties ("ngpios" and something like
"exar8250,gpio-start").
