Does the following help?  I think this is what we want (gpio-cs553x uses
gpiolib).  I'm a bit unclear how the other gpio drivers get away with
including linux/gpio.h and using gpio_chip without requiring GPIOLIB.
Maybe they implicitly are built on architectures which select
CONFIG_ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB?




Force GPIO_CS553X to select GPIOLIB, which it makes use of.
