Subject: [PATCH 4.5 092/124] gpio: pca953x: Use correct u16 value for register word write

4.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Yong Li <sdliyong@...il.com>

commit 9b8e3ec34318663affced3c14d960e78d760dd9a upstream.

The current implementation only uses the first byte in val,
the second byte is always 0. Change it to use cpu_to_le16
to write the two bytes into the register
