This driver provides PS/2 serio bus support by implementing bit banging
with the GPIO API. The GPIO pins, data and clock, can be configured with
a node in the device tree or by generic device properties (GDP).
Writing to a device is supported as well, though it is possible timings
can not be halt as they are tough and difficult to reach with bit banging.
Therefore it can be configured (also in DT and GDP) whether the serio
write function should be available for clients.
This driver is for development purposes and not recommended for productive
use. However, this driver can be useful e.g. when no USB port is available
or using old peripherals is desired as PS/2 controller chips getting rare.
This driver was tested on bcm2825 and on Kirin 960 and it worked well
together with the atkbd and psmouse driver.

Now I am very fed up with people reinventing kernel wheels in
userspace "just because they can" (read, sysfs). Put in a angry
blurb in sysfs doc and put in a new file with pointers to other
subsystem drivers utilizing GPIOs.
