fd9c55315d gpio: of: make it possible to name GPIO lines
Make it possible to name the producer side of a GPIO line using
a "gpio-line-names" property array, modeled on the
"clock-output-names" property from the clock bindings.

This naming is especially useful for:

- Debugging: lines are named after function, not just opaque
  offset numbers.

- Exploration: systems where some or all GPIO lines are available
  to end users, such as prototyping, one-off's "makerspace usecases"
  users are helped by the names of the GPIO lines when tinkering.
  This usecase has been surfacing recently.

The gpio-line-names attribute is completely optional.

Example output from lsgpio on a patched Snowball tree:

GPIO chip: gpiochip6, "8000e180.gpio", 32 GPIO lines
        line  0: unnamed unused
        line  1: "AP_GPIO161" "extkb3" [kernel]

e86328c489 This is the bulk of GPIO changes for v4.4:
GPIO core:
 - Define and handle flags for open drain/open collector
   and open source/open emitter, also know as "single-ended"
   configurations.
 - Generic request/free operations that handle calling out
   to the (optional) pin control backend.
 - Some refactoring related to an ABI change that did not
   happen, yet provide useful.
 - Added a real-time compliance checklist. Many GPIO chips
   have irqchips, and need to think this over with the RT
   patches going upstream.
 - Restructure, fix and clean up Kconfig menus a bit.
 
 New drivers:
 - New driver for AMD Promony.
 - New driver for ACCES 104-IDIO-16, a port-mapped I/O
   card, ISA-style. Very retro.
 
 Subdriver changes:
 - OMAP changes to handle real time requirements.
 - Handle trigger types for edge and level IRQs on PL061
   properly. As this hardware is very common it needs to
   set a proper example for others to follow.
 - Some container_of() cleanups.
 - Delete the unused MSM driver in favor of the driver that
   is embedded inside the pin control driver.
 - Cleanup of the ath79 GPIO driver used by many, many
   OpenWRT router targets.
 - A consolidated IT87xx driver replacing the earlier
   very specific IT8761e driver.
 - Handle the TI TCA9539 in the PCA953x driver. Also
   handle ACPI devices in this subdriver.
 - Drop xilinx arch dependencies as these FPGAs seem to
   profilate over a few different architectures. MIPS and
   ARM come to mind.

Merge tag 'gpio-v4.4-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
 "Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.4 development cycle.

  The only changes hitting outside drivers/gpio are in the pin control
  subsystem and these seem to have settled nicely in linux-next.

  Development mistakes and catfights are nicely documented in the
  reverts as you can see.  The outcome of the ABI fight is that we're
  working on a chardev ABI for GPIO now, where hope to show results for
  the v4.5 kernel.

  Summary of changes:

  GPIO core:
   - Define and handle flags for open drain/open collector and open
     source/open emitter, also know as "single-ended" configurations.
   - Generic request/free operations that handle calling out to the
     (optional) pin control backend.
   - Some refactoring related to an ABI change that did not happen, yet
     provide useful.
   - Added a real-time compliance checklist.  Many GPIO chips have
     irqchips, and need to think this over with the RT patches going
     upstream.
   - Restructure, fix and clean up Kconfig menus a bit.

  New drivers:
   - New driver for AMD Promony.
   - New driver for ACCES 104-IDIO-16, a port-mapped I/O card,

69d301fdd1 gpio: add DT bindings for existing consumer flags
It is customary for GPIO controllers to support open drain/collector
and open source/emitter configurations. Add standard GPIO line flags
to account for this and augment the documentation to say that these
are the most generic bindings.

Several people approached me to add new flags to the lines, and this
makes sense, but let's first bind up the most common cases before we
start to add exotic stuff.

Thanks to H. Nikolaus Schaller for ideas on how to encode single-ended
wiring such as open drain/source and open collector/emitter.

e7ae65ced7 gpio: mention in DT binding doc that <name>-gpio is deprecated
The gpiolib supports parsing DT properties of the form <name>-gpio but it
was only added for compatibility with older DT bindings that got it wrong
and should not be used in newer bindings.

The commit that added support for this was:

dd34c37aa3 ("gpio: of: Allow -gpio suffix for property names")

but didn't update the documentation to explain this so it's been a source
of confusion. So let's make this clear in the GPIO DT binding doc.

2071d0968e Documentation: gpio: guidelines for bindings
Now that ACPI supports named GPIO properties, either through ACPI 5.1 or
the per-driver ACPI GPIO mappings, we can be more narrow about the way
GPIOs should be specified in Device Tree bindings.

This patch updates the GPIO DT bindings documentation to highlight the
following rules for new GPIO bindings:

- All new bindings must have a meaningful name (e.g. the "gpios"
  property must not be used)
- The only suffix allowed is "-gpios", no matter the number of
  descriptors in the property
- GPIOs can only be grouped under the same property when they serve the
  same purpose, a case that should remain exceptional (e.g. bit-banged
  data lines).

a1bc260bb5 gpio: clean up gpio-ranges documentation
This change makes documentation of the the gpio-ranges property shorter
and more succinct, more consistent with the style of the rest of the
document, and not mention Linux-specifics such as the API
pinctrl_request_gpio(); DT binding documents should be OS independant
where at all possible. As part of this, the gpio-ranges property's format
is described in BNF form, in order to match the rest of the document.

This change also deprecates the #gpio-range-cells property. Such
properties are useful when one node references a second node, and that
second node dictates the format of the reference. However, that is not
the case here; the definition of gpio-ranges itself always dictates its
format entirely, and hence the value #gpio-range-cells must always be 3,
and hence there is no point requiring any referenced node to include
this property. The only remaining need for this property is to ensure
compatibility of DTs with older SW that was written to support the
previous version of the binding.

v4:
* Mention #gpio-range-cells as being deprecated, rather than removing all
  documentation of that property. This allows DTs to be written in a
  backwards-compatible way if desired, and also allows older DTs to be
  interpreted fully using the latest documentation.
v3:
* Mention BNF in commit description.
* Fixed typo.
* Dropped patch that removed the deprecated property from *.dts, since
  it's required to boot older kernels.

f23f1516b6 gpiolib: provide provision to register pin ranges
pinctrl subsystem needs gpio chip base to prepare set of gpio
pin ranges, which a given pinctrl driver can handle. This is
important to handle pinctrl gpio request calls in order to
program a given pin properly for gpio operation.

As gpio base is allocated dynamically during gpiochip
registration, presently there exists no clean way to pass this
information to the pinctrl subsystem.

After few discussions from [1], it was concluded that may be
gpio controller reporting the pin range it supports, is a
better way than pinctrl subsystem directly registering it.
