Subject: [PATCH 1/8] gpio: generic: add new generic GPIO chip API

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

As the first step in removing the fields specific to the gpio-mmio
module from struct gpio_chip, we introduce a new set of generic GPIO
chip interfaces that are meant to replace the existing bgpio_ ones.

The new initialization function - gpio_generic_chip_init() - takes a
configuration structure as argument instead of 9 separate parameters.
This will allow easy extension if needed in the future. We hide the
locking details behind a set of helpers in order to be able to move the
raw spinlock out of struct gpio_chip without the users noticing.

For now, the new APIs just wrap the existing ones. Once all users have
been converted to the new interfaces, we'll pull them into gpio-mmio and
implement them in a backward-compatible way while also moving all fields
specific to the generic GPIO chip into struct gpio_generic_chip.

+ * @dat: MMIO address for the register to READ the value of the GPIO lines, it
+ *       is expected that a 1 in the corresponding bit in this register means
+ *       the line is asserted.
+ * @set: MMIO address for the register to SET the value of the GPIO lines, it
+ *       is expected that we write the line with 1 in this register to drive
+ *       the GPIO line high.
+ * @clr: MMIO address for the register to CLEAR the value of the GPIO lines,
+ *       it is expected that we write the line with 1 in this register to
+ *       drive the GPIO line low. It is allowed to leave this address as NULL,
+ *       in that case the SET register will be assumed to also clear the GPIO
+ *       lines, by actively writing the line with 0.
+ * @dirout: MMIO address for the register to set the line as OUTPUT. It is
+ *          assumed that setting a line to 1 in this register will turn that
+ *          line into an output line. Conversely, setting the line to 0 will
+ *          turn that line into an input.
+ * @dirin: MMIO address for the register to set this line as INPUT. It is
+ *         assumed that setting a line to 1 in this register will turn that
+ *         line into an input line. Conversely, setting the line to 0 will
+ *         turn that line into an output.
+ * @flags: Different flags that will affect the behaviour of the device, such
+ *         as endianness etc.
