From: David Brownell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Add an empty drivers/gpio directory for gpiolib based GPIO expanders. We already have three of them (two I2C, one SPI), and there are dozens of similar chips that only exist for GPIO expansion.
This won't be the only place to hold such gpio_chip code. Many external chips add a few GPIOs as secondary functionality, and platform code frequently needs to closely integrate GPIO and IRQ support. This is placed *early* in the build/link sequence since it's common for other drivers to depend on GPIOs to do their work, so they need to be initialized early in the device_initcall() sequence.
