The for_each_set_clump8 macro is hardcoded to 8-bit clumps because the
current drivers utilizing this functionality are only updating their
GPIO ports 8-bits at a time.

However, if this driver updates more or less GPIO at a time, we can
easily update the macro by replacing the hardcoded '8' value with a
variable, thus giving us the generic for_each_set_clump macro.

How many GPIO can be updated at a time for this device?
