Merge tag 'gpio-v3.18-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio

Pull GPIO changes from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.18 development cycle:

   - Increase the default ARCH_NR_GPIO from 256 to 512.  This was done
     to avoid having a custom <asm/gpio.h> header for the x86
     architecture - GPIO is custom and complicated enough as it is
     already! We want to move to a radix to store the descriptors going
     forward, and finally get rid of this fixed array size altogether.

   - Endgame patching of the gpio_remove() semantics initiated by
     Abdoulaye Berthe.  It is not accepted by the system that the
     removal of a GPIO chip fails during eg reboot or shutdown, and
     therefore the return value has now painfully been refactored away.
     For special cases like GPIO expanders on a hot-pluggable bus like
     USB, we may later add some gpiochip_try_remove() call, but for the
     cases we have now, return values are moot.

   - Some incremental refactoring of the gpiolib core and ACPI GPIO
     library for more descriptor usage.

   - Refactor the chained IRQ handler set-up method to handle also
     threaded, nested interrupts and set up the parent IRQ correctly.
     Switch STMPE and TC3589x drivers to use this registration method.

   - Add a .irq_not_threaded flag to the struct gpio_chip, so that also
     GPIO expanders that block but are still not using threaded IRQ
     handlers.

   - New drivers for the ARM64 X-Gene SoC GPIO controller.

   - The syscon GPIO driver has been improved to handle the "DSP GPIO"
     found on the TI Keystone 2 SoC:s.

   - ADNP driver switched to use gpiolib irqchip helpers.

   - Refactor the DWAPB driver to support being instantiated from and
     MFD cell (platform device).

   - Incremental feature improvement in the Zynq, MCP23S08, DWAPB, OMAP,
     Xilinx and Crystalcove drivers.

   - Various minor fixes"
