Masahiro,

I noticed this loops per GPIO bank and uniphier_gpio_bank_write is
called each time to update the respective bank. The
uniphier_gpio_reg_update function however is calling writel to update
the registers; yet only 8 bits (UNIPHIER_GPIO_LINES_PER_BANK) are
updated at a time via the uniphier_gpio_bank_write call in the
uniphier_gpio_set_multiple function.

Can more than one bank be updated at a time via writel (e.g. 4 banks at
8 bits per bank via a single 32-bit writel call)? If so, instead of
using the for_each_set_clump8 macro, it may be more efficient to loop
through 4 banks at a time.
