Hi David,

Right, so you have CONFIG_OF=y, but CONFIG_OF_GPIO=n, as the latter
depends on HAS_IOMEM, which is not set for UML.

Interestingly, the latter dependency claims to have been added because
gpiolib-of.c uses ioremap()/iounmap(). However, it seems to have never
called ioremap(), only of_iomap() and iounmap().
of_iomap() itself is available, as it depends on OF_ADDRESS, which
depends on HAS_IOMEM || UML.  Interestingly, of_iomap() calls ioremap(),
without a dependency on HAS_IOMEM?

So perhaps the dependency of CONFIG_OF_GPIO on HAS_IOMEM can be
dropped these days, solving this issue as well?
