Merge tag 'gpio-v4.9-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio

Pull GPIO fixes from Linus Walleij:
 "Here is a set of GPIO fixes for the v4.9 kernel series:

   - Fix up off-by one and line offset validation, info leak to
     userspace, and reject invalid flags. Those are especially valuable
     hardening patches from Lars-Peter Clausen, all tagged for stable.

   - Fix module autoload for TS4800 and ATH79.

   - Correct the IRQ handler for MPC8xxx to use handle_level_irq() as it
     (a) reacts to edges not levels and (b) even implements .irq_ack().
     We were missing IRQs here.

   - Fix the error path for acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get()

   - Fix a memory leak in the MXS driver.

   - Fix an annoying typo in the STMPE driver.

   - Put a dependency on sysfs to the mockup driver"
