Subject: [PATCH] gpio: cdev: sanitize the label before requesting the
 interrupt

When an interrupt is requested, a procfs directory is created under
"/proc/irq/<irqnum>/<label>" where <label> is the string passed to one of
the request_irq() variants.

What follows is that the string must not contain the "/" character or
the procfs mkdir operation will fail. We don't have such constraints for
GPIO consumer labels which are used verbatim as interrupt labels for
GPIO irqs. We must therefore sanitize the consumer string before
requesting the interrupt.

Let's replace all "/" with ":".
