Subject: Applied "gpio: Export gpiod_get_from_of_node()" to the regulator tree

The patch

   gpio: Export gpiod_get_from_of_node()

has been applied to the regulator tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] gpio: Export gpiod_get_from_of_node()

This function already exist inside gpiolib, we were just
reluctant to make it available to the kernel at large as
the devm_* seemed to be enough for anyone.

However we found out that regulators need to do their own
lifecycle/refcounting on GPIO descriptors and explicitly
call gpiod_put() when done with a descriptor, so export
this function so we can hand the refcounting over to the
regulator core for these descriptors after retrieveal.
