Subject: [PATCH RFC/RFT 06/15] gpio: sysfs: remove the mockdev pointer from
 struct gpio_device

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@...aro.org>

The usage of the mockdev pointer in struct gpio_device is limited to the
GPIO sysfs code. There's no reason to keep it in this top-level
structure. Create a separate structure containing the reference to the
GPIO device and the dummy class device that will be passed to
device_create_with_groups(). The !gdev->mockdev checks can be removed as
long as we make sure that all operations on the GPIO class are protected
with the sysfs lock.
