1) I'm a little disappointed that I reported the build issue 6 days
   ago when we were already in the merge window, and it's taken until
   now to make some progress.

2) I would prefer not to depend on GPIOLIB because it reduces
   compile-test coverage.  For example, the x86_64 defconfig does not
   enable GPIOLIB, so one must manually enable it to even be able to
   enable PCIE_FU740.

   Many other PCI controller drivers use GPIO, but no others depend on
   GPIOLIB, so I infer that in the !GPIOLIB case, gpio/consumer.h
   provides the stubs required for compile testing.

   We could have a conversation about whether it's better to
   explicitly depend on GPIOLIB here, or whether building a working
   FU740 driver implicitly depends on GPIOLIB being selected
   elsewhere.  That implicit dependency *is* a little obscure, but I
   think that's what other drivers currently do, and I'd like to do
   this consistently unless there's a good reason otherwise.

   Here are some examples of other drivers:

   dwc/pci-dra7xx.c:
     config PCI_DRA7XX_HOST
       depends on SOC_DRA7XX || COMPILE_TEST

     config SOC_DRA7XX
       select ARCH_OMAP2PLUS

     config ARCH_OMAP2PLUS
       select GPIOLIB

   dwc/pci-meson.c:
     config PCI_MESON
       # doesn't, but probably *should* depend on "ARCH_MESON || COMPILE_TEST"

     menuconfig ARCH_MESON
       select GPIOLIB

   dwc/pcie-qcom.c:
     config PCIE_QCOM
       depends on OF && (ARCH_QCOM || COMPILE_TEST)

     config ARCH_QCOM
       select GPIOLIB

   pcie-rockchip.c:
     config PCIE_ROCKCHIP_HOST
       depends on ARCH_ROCKCHIP || COMPILE_TEST

     config ARCH_ROCKCHIP
       select GPIOLIB
