gpiolib: allow exported GPIO nodes to be named using sysfs links
Commit 926b663ce8215ba448960e1ff6e58b67a2c3b99b (gpiolib: allow GPIOs to be named) already provides naming on the chip level. This patch provides more flexibility by allowing multiple names where ever in sysfs on a per GPIO basis. Adapted from David Brownell's comments on a similar concept: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/4/20/203.
