Sorry, for the late reply. You need not pull this patch. There has
been some slight miss understanding and as it turns out the
gpio_request_one() should actually be done in the board file with the
appropriate gpio number. This gpio number should be converted to irq
in the board file and then finally sent as client->irq to pca953x
driver. Please undo this patch.
