Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] gpio: aggregator: Misc parsing improvements

	Hi Linus, Bartosz, Andy,

This patch series contains two improvements for the parsing code in the
GPIO Aggregator.

The second one converts the driver to use bitmap_parselist() for parsing
GPIO offsets and/or ranges, as suggested by Andy[1].  This should have
no impact on the format of the configuration parameters written to the
"new_device" virtual file in sysfs.

Changes compared to v1:
  - Rename mask to bitmap,
  - Allocate bitmap dynamically.

Thanks for your comments!

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
