Ben Dooks a342d215c2 gpio: fix probe() error return in gpio driver probes
A number of drivers in drivers/gpio return -ENODEV when confronted with
missing setup parameters such as the platform data.  However, returning
-ENODEV causes the driver layer to silently ignore the driver as it
assumes the probe did not find anything and was only speculative.

To make life easier to discern why a driver is not being attached, change
to returning -EINVAL, which is a better description of the fact that the
driver data was not valid.

Also add a set of dev_dbg() statements to the error paths to provide an
better explanation of the error as there may be more that one point in the
driver.

David Brownell 2f8d11971b gpio: i2c expanders use subsys_init
Make the I2C external GPIO expander drivers register themselves at
subsys_initcall() time when they're statically linked.

SOC-integrated GPIOs are available starting very early -- early in
arch_initcall() at latest, but often even before initcalls start to run --
so this improves consistency, so more subsystems can rely on GPIOs in
their own subsys_initcall() code.

(This isn't a theoretical problem.  This is one of several patches needed
to resolve oopsing observed when statically linking kernels on a DaVinci
EVM.  Its pcf857x GPIOs needed to be available well before some other
drivers initialized.)

David Brownell d8f388d8dc gpio: sysfs interface
This adds a simple sysfs interface for GPIOs.

    /sys/class/gpio
    	/export ... asks the kernel to export a GPIO to userspace
    	/unexport ... to return a GPIO to the kernel
        /gpioN ... for each exported GPIO #N
	    /value ... always readable, writes fail for input GPIOs
	    /direction ... r/w as: in, out (default low); write high, low
	/gpiochipN ... for each gpiochip; #N is its first GPIO
	    /base ... (r/o) same as N
	    /label ... (r/o) descriptive, not necessarily unique
	    /ngpio ... (r/o) number of GPIOs; numbered N .. N+(ngpio - 1)

GPIOs claimed by kernel code may be exported by its owner using a new
gpio_export() call, which should be most useful for driver debugging.
Such exports may optionally be done without a "direction" attribute.

Userspace may ask to take over a GPIO by writing to a sysfs control file,
helping to cope with incomplete board support or other "one-off"
requirements that don't merit full kernel support:

  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/export
	... will gpio_request(23, "sysfs") and gpio_export(23);
	use /sys/class/gpio/gpio-23/direction to (re)configure it,
	when that GPIO can be used as both input and output.
  echo 23 > /sys/class/gpio/unexport
	... will gpio_free(23), when it was exported as above

The extra D-space footprint is a few hundred bytes, except for the sysfs
resources associated with each exported GPIO.  The additional I-space
footprint is about two thirds of the current size of gpiolib (!).  Since
no /dev node creation is involved, no "udev" support is needed.

Related changes:

  * This adds a device pointer to "struct gpio_chip".  When GPIO
    providers initialize that, sysfs gpio class devices become children of
    that device instead of being "virtual" devices.

  * The (few) gpio_chip providers which have such a device node have
    been updated.

  * Some gpio_chip drivers also needed to update their module "owner"
    field ...  for which missing kerneldoc was added.

  * Some gpio_chips don't support input GPIOs.  Those GPIOs are now
    flagged appropriately when the chip is registered.

Based on previous patches, and discussion both on and off LKML.

A Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-gpio update is ready to submit once this
merges to mainline.

David Brownell 1673ad52bd gpio: pcf857x: add lock and handle more chips
Two small updates to the pcf857x driver: (a) the max732[89] chips are
also second sources for the pcf8574/a, and (b) add a mutex to prevent
trashing the cached state.  Adding the lock is effectively a bugfix,
although it seems unlikely that anyone would have run into the issue it
protects against.

Jean Delvare 3760f73671 i2c: Convert most new-style drivers to use module aliasing
Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich.

Update most new-style i2c drivers to use standard module aliasing
instead of the old driver_name/type driver matching scheme. I've
left the video drivers apart (except for SoC camera drivers) as
they're a bit more diffcult to deal with, they'll have their own
patch later.

Jean Delvare d2653e9273 i2c: Add support for device alias names
Based on earlier work by Jon Smirl and Jochen Friedrich.

This patch allows new-style i2c chip drivers to have alias names using
the official kernel aliasing system and MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). At this
point, the old i2c driver binding scheme (driver_name/type) is still
supported.

current (small) set of non-SOC GPIO drivers from being unloaded while any of

David Brownell 15fae37d9f gpiolib: pcf857x i2c gpio expander support
This is a new-style I2C driver for most common 8 and 16 bit I2C based
"quasi-bidirectional" GPIO expanders: pcf8574 or pcf8575, and several
compatible models (mostly faster, supporting I2C at up to 1 MHz).

The driver exposes the GPIO signals using the platform-neutral GPIO
programming interface, so they are easily accessed by other kernel code.  The
lack of such a flexible kernel API has been a big factor in the proliferation
of board-specific drivers for these chips...  stuff that rarely makes it
upstream since it's so ugly.  This driver will let such boards use standard
calls.

Since it's a new-style driver, these devices must be configured as part of
board-specific init.  That eliminates the need for error-prone manual
configuration of module parameters, and makes compatibility with legacy
drivers (pcf8574.c, pc8575.c) for these chips easier (there's a clear
either/or disjunction).
