Like with commit 3c739ad0df
it is not always enough to specify all the pins of a gpio_chip
from offset zero to be added to a pin map range, since the
mapping from GPIO to pin controller may not be linear at all,
but need to be broken into a few consecutive sub-ranges or
1-pin entries for complicated cases. The ranges may also be
sparse.
This alters the signature of the function to accept offsets
into both the GPIO-chip local pinspace and the pin controller
local pinspace.

The fact that of_gpiochip_add_pin_range() and
gpiochip_add_pin_range() share too much code is fragile and
will invariably mean that bugs need to be fixed in two places
instead of one.
So separate the concerns of gpiolib.c and gpiolib-of.c and
have the latter call the former as back-end. This is necessary
also when going forward with other device descriptions such
as ACPI.
This is done by:
- Adding a return code to gpiochip_add_pin_range() so we can
reliably check whether this succeeds.
- Get rid of the custom of_pinctrl_add_gpio_range() from
pinctrl. Instead create of_pinctrl_get() to just retrive the
pin controller per se from an OF node. This composite
function was just begging to be deleted, it was way to
purpose-specific.
- Use pinctrl_dev_get_name() to get the name of the retrieved
pin controller and use that to call back into the generic
gpiochip_add_pin_range().
Now the pin range is only allocated and tied to a pin
controller from the core implementation in gpiolib.c.

- Declare the gpiochip_add_pin_range() and
gpiochip_remove_pin_ranges() functions in <asm-generic/gpio.h>

- Actually only implement these very functions in gpiolib.c

pinctrl subsystem needs gpio chip base to prepare set of gpio
pin ranges, which a given pinctrl driver can handle. This is
important to handle pinctrl gpio request calls in order to
program a given pin properly for gpio operation.
As gpio base is allocated dynamically during gpiochip
registration, presently there exists no clean way to pass this
information to the pinctrl subsystem.
After few discussions from [1], it was concluded that may be
gpio controller reporting the pin range it supports, is a
better way than pinctrl subsystem directly registering it.

When dumping a collection of items via seq_file, it is recommended to
use the iterator interface. For the gpiolib debugfs interface this can
be done to dump each GPIO chip in turn.
Note that for gpiolib this is a little cumbersome because it does not
provide a list of registered GPIO chips and the only way to iterate is
over each GPIO individually. Once a chip is found, the number of GPIOs
it provides can be skipped as a small optimization.

Since users must be explicitly provided with a GPIO number in order to

therefore defer until it has registered.

gpio_request() return -EPROBE_DEFER when failing to look up the GPIO.

Currently the kernel uses the struct device_node.data pointer to resolve
a struct gpio_chip pointer from a device tree node. However, the .data
member doesn't provide any type checking and there aren't any rules
enforced on what it should be used for. There's no guarantee that the
data stored in it actually points to an gpio_chip pointer.
Instead of relying on the .data pointer, this patch modifies the code
to add a lookup function which scans through the registered gpio_chips
and returns the gpio_chip that has a pointer to the specified
device_node.
