Subject: [PATCH 13/23] gpiolib: cdev: Leverage revocable for gpio_fileops

Struct gpio_device now provides a revocable provider to the underlying
struct gpio_chip.  Leverage revocable for gpio_fileops so that it doesn't
need to handle the synchronization by accessing the SRCU explicitly.

Also, it's unneeded to hold a reference count to the struct gpio_device
while the file is opening.  The struct gpio_device
(i.e., (struct gpio_chip *)->gpiodev)) is valid as long as struct
gpio_chip is valid.
