Patch applied to the GPIO tree for v4.17 with all the review tags.

I just folded the changelog into the commit message, for new
drivers it is sometimes useful to keep these around in
git actually.

If any further changes are needed we can just patch on top
of this.

It's a very pretty driver, good work!

Yours,
