Pull gpio updates from Bartosz Golaszewski:
"We have three new drivers, some refactoring in the GPIO core, lots of
various changes across many drivers, new configfs interface for the
virtual gpio-aggregator module and DT-bindings updates.
The treewide conversion of GPIO drivers to using the new value setter
callbacks is ongoing with another round of GPIO drivers updated. You
will also see these commits coming in from other subsystems as with
the relevant changes merged into mainline last cycle, I've started
converting GPIO providers located elsewhere than drivers/gpio/.
GPIO core:
- use more lock guards where applicable
- refactor GPIO ACPI code and shrink it in the process by 8%
- move GPIO ACPI quirks into a separate file
- remove unneeded #ifdef
- convert GPIO devres helpers to using devm_add_action() where
applicable which shrinks and simplifies the code
- refactor GPIO descriptor validation in GPIO consumer interfaces
- don't allow setting values on input lines in the GPIO core which
will take off the burden from GPIO drivers of checking this down
the line
- provide gpiod_is_equal() as a way of safely comparing two GPIO
descriptors (the only current user is in regulator core)
New drivers:
- add the GPIO module for the max77759 multifunction device
- add the GPIO driver for the VeriSilicon BLZP1600 GPIO controller
- add the GPIO driver for the Spacemit K1 SoC
Driver improvements:
- convert more drivers to using the new GPIO line value setter
callbacks
- convert more drivers to making the irq_chip immutable as is
recommended by the interrupt subsystem
- extend build testing coverage by enabling more modules to be built
with COMPILE_TEST=y
- extend the gpio-aggregator module with a configfs interface that
makes the setup easier for user-space than the existing
driver-level sysfs attributes and also adds more advanced
configuration features (such as referring to aggregated lines by
their original names or modifying their names as exposed by the
aggregated chip)
- add a missing mutex_destroy() in gpio-imx-scu
- add an OF polarity quirk for s5m8767
- allow building gpio-vf610 as a loadable module
- make gpio-mxc not hardcode its GPIO base number with GPIO SYSFS
interface disabled (another small step towards getting rid of the
global GPIO numberspace)
- add support for level-triggered interrupts to gpio-pca953x
- don't double-check the ngpios property in gpio-ds4520 as GPIO core
already does it
- don't double-check the number of GPIOs in gpio-imx-scu as GPIO core
already does it
- remove unused callbacks from gpio-max3191x
DT bindings:
- add device-tree bindings for max77759, spacemit,k1 and blzp1600
(new drivers added this cycle)
- document more properties for gpio-vf610 and gpio-tegra186
- document a new pca95xx variant
- fix style of examples in several GPIO DT-binding documents
Misc:
- TODO list updates"

drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-at91.c uses struct gpio_chip::base to find out
which bit to set in a register:
dev_dbg(npct->dev, "enable pin %u as GPIO\n", offset);
mask = 1 << (offset - chip->base);
This adds a non-obvious dependency on the global numberspace from the
GPIO driver itself, even if all consumers use the descriptor API.
More such instances may exist and will need to be fixed in the quest for
removal of the global numberspace, so add a reminder about it to the
TODO list.

The GPIOD_FLAGS_BIT_NONEXCLUSIVE flag and devm_gpiod_unhinge() function
should be replaced with a better solution. The pwrseq subsystem is a good
candidate. GPIOs themselves should remain a unique resource. Add a task
for tracking the removal of these deprecated symbols.

It seems there really exists the need for a simple sysfs interface that
can be easily used from minimal initramfs images that don't contain much
more than busybox. However the current interface poses a challenge to
the removal of global GPIO numberspace. Add an item that tracks
extending the existing ABI with a per-chip export/unexport attribute
pair.

While there are surely some arguments in favor of integrating the GPIO
and pinctrl subsystems into one, I believe this is not the right
approach.
The GPIO subsystem uses intricate locking with SRCU to handle the fact
that both consumers and providers may run in different contexts.
Pin-controller drivers are always meant to run in process context. This
alone is a huge obstacle to any attempt at integration as evident by
many problems we already encountered during the hotplug rework.
The current glue code is pretty minimal and for most part already allows
GPIO controllers to query pinctrl about the information they need.
I suggest to drop this task and keep the subsystems separate even if
many pin-controllers implement GPIO functionality in addition to pin
functions.

The consensus among core GPIO stakeholders seems to be that a new
debugfs interface will only increase maintenance burden and will fail
to attract users that care about long-term stability of the ABI[1].
Let's not go this way and not add a fourth user-facing interface to the
GPIO subsystem.

This is a rarely used feature that has nothing to do with the
client-side of_gpio.h.
Split it out with a separate header file and Kconfig option
so it can be removed on its own timeline aside from removing
the of_gpio consumer interfaces.

Intel Moorestown and Medfield are quite old Intel Atom based
32-bit platforms, which were in limited use in some Android phones,
tablets and consumer electronics more than eight years ago.
There are no bugs or problems ever reported outside from Intel
for breaking any of that platforms for years. It seems no real
users exists who run more or less fresh kernel on it. The commit
05f4434bc130 ("ASoC: Intel: remove mfld_machine") also in align
with this theory.
Due to above and to reduce a burden of supporting outdated drivers
we remove the support of outdated platforms completely.
Moreover this code duplicates gpio-pxa since the IP has been derived
from XScale implementation. If anybody wants to resurrect this
it has to be part of gpio-pxa.c.

Now that all gpiolib irqchip users have been over to use
the irqchip template, we can finally retire the old code
path and leave just one way in to the irqchip: set up the
template when registering the gpio_chip. For a while
we had two code paths for this which was a bit confusing.
This brings this work to a conclusion, there is now one
way of doing this.
