gpio: of: fix GPIO drivers with multiple gpio_chip for a single node
Sylvain Lemieux reports the LPC32xx GPIO driver is broken since
commit 762c2e46c059 ("gpio: of: remove of_gpiochip_and_xlate() and
struct gg_data"). Probably, gpio-etraxfs.c and gpio-davinci.c are
broken too.
Those drivers register multiple gpio_chip that are associated to a
single OF node, and their own .of_xlate() checks if the passed
gpio_chip is valid.
Now, the problem is of_find_gpiochip_by_node() returns the first
gpio_chip found to match the given node. So, .of_xlate() fails,
except for the first GPIO bank.
Reverting the commit could be a solution, but I do not want to go
back to the mess of struct gg_data. Another solution here is to
take the match by a node pointer and the success of .of_xlate().
It is a bit clumsy to call .of_xlate twice; for gpio_chip matching
and for really getting the gpio_desc index. Perhaps, our long-term
goal might be to convert the drivers to single chip registration,
but this commit will solve the problem until then.
