Merge branch 'depends/gpio-devel' into next/soc
Pulling in a newer version of the depend branch from the gpio tree,
since there was some randconfig breakage introduced at the version we
had, and we want to keep those things as bisectable as possible. It's
not bad enough to warrant a rebase though, so there'll be a window of
exposure to this.
* depends/gpio-devel:
gpio: SPEAr: add spi chipselect control driver
gpio: gpio-max710x: Support device tree probing
gpio: twl4030: Use only TWL4030_MODULE_LED for LED configuration
gpio: tegra: read output value when gpio is set in direction_out
gpio: pca953x: Add compatible strings to gpio-pca953x driver
gpio: pca953x: Register an IRQ domain
gpio: mvebu: Set free callback for gpio_chip
gpio: tegra: Drop exporting static functions
gpio: tegra: Staticize non-exported symbols
gpio: tegra: fix suspend/resume apis
gpio-pch: Set parent dev for gpio chip
gpio: em: Fix build errors

If chipselect remain under PL022 control then they would be +released as soon as transfer is over and TxFIFO becomes empty. This is not +desired by some of the device protocols above spi which expect (multiple) +transfers without releasing their chipselects. + +Chipselects can be controlled by software by turning them as GPIOs.
