Linus Torvalds 8148c17b17 This is the bulk of the GPIO changes for the v5.2 kernel cycle:
Core changes:
 - The gpiolib MMIO driver has been enhanced to handle two direction
   registers, i.e. one register to set lines as input and one register
   to set lines as output. It turns out some silicon engineer thinks
   the ability to configure a line as input and output at the same
   time makes sense, this can be debated but includes a lot of analog
   electronics reasoning, and the registers are there and need to
   be handled consistently. Unsurprisingly, we enforce the lines to
   be either inputs or outputs in such schemes.
 - Send in the proper argument value to .set_config() dispatched to
   the pin control subsystem. Nobody used it before, now someone
   does, so fix it to work as expected.
 - The ACPI gpiolib portions can now handle pin bias setting (pull up
   or pull down). This has been in the ACPI spec for years and we
   finally have it properly integrated with Linux GPIOs. It was based
   on an observation from Andy Schevchenko that Thomas Petazzoni's
   changes to the core for biasing the PCA950x GPIO expander actually
   happen to fit hand-in-glove with what the ACPI core needed.
   Such nice synergies happen sometimes.
 
 New drivers:
 - A new driver for the Mellanox BlueField GPIO controller. This is
   using 64bit MMIO registers and can configure lines as inputs
   and outputs at the same time and after improving the MMIO library
   we handle it just fine. Interesting.
 - A new IXP4xx proper gpiochip driver with hierarchical interrupts
   should be coming in from the ARM SoC tree as well.
 
 Driver enhancements:
 - The PCA053x driver handles the CAT9554 GPIO expander.
 - The PCA053x driver handles the NXP PCAL6416 GPIO expander.
 - Wake-up support on PCA053x GPIO lines.
 - OMAP now does a nice asynchronous IRQ handling on wake-ups by
   letting everything wake up on edges, and this makes runtime PM
   work as expected too.
 
 Misc:
 - Several cleanups such as devres fixes.
 - Get rid of some languager comstructs that cause problems when
   compiling with LLVMs clang.
 - Documentation review and update.

Pull gpio updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of the GPIO changes for the v5.2 kernel cycle. A bit
  later than usual because I was ironing out my own mistakes. I'm
  holding some stuff back for the next kernel as a result, and this
  should be a healthy and well tested batch.

  Core changes:

   - The gpiolib MMIO driver has been enhanced to handle two direction
     registers, i.e. one register to set lines as input and one register
     to set lines as output. It turns out some silicon engineer thinks
