This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled gpio: of: fix GPIO drivers with multiple gpio_chip for a single node to the 4.8-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: gpio-of-fix-gpio-drivers-with-multiple-gpio_chip-for-a-single-node.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.8 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From c7e9d39831a31682285cc31ddf7dd06c0fe59138 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 25 Oct 2016 10:47:44 +0900 Subject: gpio: of: fix GPIO drivers with multiple gpio_chip for a single node From: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c7e9d39831a31682285cc31ddf7dd06c0fe59138 upstream. Sylvain Lemieux reports the LPC32xx GPIO driver is broken since commit 762c2e46c059 ("gpio: of: remove of_gpiochip_and_xlate() and struct gg_data"). Probably, gpio-etraxfs.c and gpio-davinci.c are broken too. Those drivers register multiple gpio_chip that are associated to a single OF node, and their own .of_xlate() checks if the passed gpio_chip is valid. Now, the problem is of_find_gpiochip_by_node() returns the first gpio_chip found to match the given node. So, .of_xlate() fails, except for the first GPIO bank. Reverting the commit could be a solution, but I do not want to go back to the mess of struct gg_data. Another solution here is to take the match by a node pointer and the success of .of_xlate(). It is a bit clumsy to call .of_xlate twice; for gpio_chip matching and for really getting the gpio_desc index. Perhaps, our long-term goal might be to convert the drivers to single chip registration, but this commit will solve the problem until then.
