Pull GPIO changes from Linus Walleij: "Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.13 development cycle. I've got ACKs for the things that affect other subsystems (or it's my own subsystem, like pinctrl). Most of that pertain to an attempt from my side to consolidate and get rid of custom GPIO implementations in the ARM tree. I will continue doing this. The main change this time is the new GPIO descriptor API, background for this can be found in Corbet's summary from this january in LWN: http://lwn.net/Articles/533632/ Summary: - Merged the GPIO descriptor API from Alexandre Courbot. This is a first step toward trying to get rid of the global GPIO numberspace for the future. - Add an API so that driver can flag that a certain GPIO line is being used by a irqchip backend for generating IRQs, so that we can enforce checks, like not allowing users to switch that li...
