Subject: [PATCH 4.0 07/72] MIPS: BCM63xx: Move bcm63xx_gpio_init() to bcm63xx_register_devices().

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

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


From: Nicolas Schichan <nschichan@...ebox.fr>

Commit 2ec459f2a77b808c1e5a3616c88b613d3f720c8d upstream.

When called from prom init code, bcm63xx_gpio_init() will fail as it
will call gpiochip_add() which relies on a working kmalloc() to alloc
the gpio_desc array and kmalloc is not useable yet at prom init time.

Move bcm63xx_gpio_init() to bcm63xx_register_devices() (an
arch_initcall) where kmalloc works.

Fixes: 14e85c0e69d5 ("gpio: remove gpio_descs global array")
