Right, will fix.

Yup, switching to gpiochip_add_pin_range() works just fine here.

No, nothing depends on it being initialized this early.  When I was
asked to remove the module stuff, I just picked arch_initcall since
that's what most other pinctrl drivers not using
module_platform_driver() use.  It also has the benefit of reducing the
number of probe deferrals.
