gpio: delete ARCH_[WANTS_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB 



The GPIOLIB is now selectable explicitly, and always available
for all archs. All archs that require GPIOLIB are switched to
select GPIOLIB directly. Delete the hairy ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB
and ARCH_WANTS_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB Kconfig symbols.

describe its hardware layout. Currently, mappings can be defined through device

tree, ACPI, and platform data.

Platform Support

----------------

To support this framework, a platform's Kconfig will "select" either

ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB or ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB

and arrange that its <asm/gpio.h> includes <asm-generic/gpio.h> and defines

three functions: gpio_get_value(), gpio_set_value(), and gpio_cansleep().

To force-enable this framework, a platform's Kconfig will "select" GPIOLIB,

else it is up to the user to configure support for GPIO.



It may also provide a custom value for ARCH_NR_GPIOS, so that it better

reflects the number of GPIOs in actual use on that platform, without

wasting static table space.  (It should count both built-in/SoC GPIOs and

also ones on GPIO expanders.



ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB means that the gpiolib code will always get compiled

into the kernel on that architecture.



ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB means the gpiolib code defaults to off and the user

can enable it and build it into the kernel optionally.



If neither of these options are selected, the platform does not support

GPIOs through GPIO-lib and the code cannot be enabled by the user.
