Subject: [RFC 2.6.27 1/1] gpiolib: add support for batch set of pins

Beloved friends,

I would like to request your feedback on the following idea. I hope I have
made sure to CC all the right people and the right lists! If not, PLEASE
let me know! I couldn't find a MAINTAINERS entry for gpiolib so I just
used what I saw in the git log and have also added people and lists that
I think may be interested.

This is just an RFC. If you all feel it is looking like the right approach
then I'll clean it up and make it a patch.

Thanks,
jaya

am300epd was doing 800*600*16*gpio_set_value for each framebuffer transfer
(it uses 16-pins of gpio as its data bus). I found this caused a wee
performance limitation. This patch adds an API for gpio_set_value_bus
which allows users to set batches of consecutive gpio together in a single
call. I have done a test implementation on gumstix (pxa255) with am300epd
and it provides a nice improvement in performance.
