I almost want to make the driver depend on !GPIO_SYSFS because
of this commit message.

DO NOT USE OR ENCOURAGE THE USE OF THE GPIO SYSFS
INTERFACE.

Use the character device.

Use the example in tools/gpio/* as a guideline and testbed.

Use libgpiod as a rich userspace.

And the commit message should state that this is a driver
for such and such Exar hardware instead.

Thanks.

You are missing
#include <linux/seq_file.h>

and that is why the build robot is complaining.
