Skip this. Just put it inside the section:

menu "SPI GPIO expanders"
        depends on SPI_MASTER

But consider this:

select REGMAP_SPI

I bet this is standard SPI addressing of some kind, if in doubt Mark Brown
will know. Look into REGMAP_SPI and use regmap accessors in the driver.
Look at: drivers/gpio/gpio-xra1403.c for an example.

Switch to unsigned long when using regmap.

mask = BIT(offset);

mask = BIT(offset - 8);

Regmap also contains a mutex already so you will just need a oneliner
for things like this.

Ugh get rid of this shifting and casting.

I tend to do:

return !!(inputs & mask);

That will clamp whatever value to a bool.

Once you have converted the driver to use REGMAP_SPI, take a
look at GPIO_REGMAP in drivers/gpio/gpio-regmap.c and see if
you can also use that helper to slim this down even more. (Uncertain
about that, but check it!)
