Subject: [PATCH] gpio: pca953x: use regmap_update_bits() to improve efficiency

From: Hugo Villeneuve <hvilleneuve@...onoff.com>

Using regmap_update_bits() allows to reduce the number of I2C transfers
when updating bits that haven't changed on non-volatile registers.

For example on a PCAL6416, when changing a GPIO direction from input to
output, the number of I2C transfers can be reduced from 4 to just 1 if
the pull resistors configuration hasn't changed and the output value
is the same as before.
