Subject: [PATCH] gpio: pca953x: change driver name to be unique

This driver handles the variants pca9534-pca9539, so it chose the name
"pca953x". However, there is a led driver which decided on the same
name. As a result, those two can't be loaded at the same time. Add a
subsystem prefix to make the driver name unique. Device matching will
not suffer, because both are I2C drivers which match using a
i2c_device_id-table which is not altered.
