Hi,
This patch causes these new errors on NVIDIA Tegra30 Nexus 7 using recent linux-next:
gpio-1022 (cpu-pwr-req-hog): hogged as input
max77620-pinctrl max77620-pinctrl: pin gpio4 already requested by max77620-pinctrl; cannot claim for gpiochip1
max77620-pinctrl max77620-pinctrl: pin-4 (gpiochip1) status -22
max77620-pinctrl max77620-pinctrl: could not request pin 4 (gpio4) from group gpio4 on device max77620-pinctrl
gpio_stub_drv gpiochip1: Error applying setting, reverse things back
gpio_stub_drv: probe of gpiochip1 failed with error -22
Please fix, thanks in advance.
