When using GPIO irqchip helpers to setup irqchip for a gpiolib based
driver, it is not possible to select which GPIOs to add to the IRQ domain.
Instead it just adds all GPIOs which is not always desired. For example
there might be GPIOs that for some reason cannot generated normal
interrupts at all.
To support this we add a flag irq_need_valid_mask to struct gpio_chip. When
this flag is set the core allocates irq_valid_mask that holds one bit for
each GPIO the chip has. By default all bits are set but drivers can
manipulate this using set_bit() and clear_bit() accordingly.
Then when gpiochip_irqchip_add() is called, this mask is checked and all
GPIOs with bit is set are added to the IRQ domain created for the GPIO
chip.

This has been a totally undocumented feature for years so add some
generic concepts and documentation about open drain/source, include
some facts on how we now support for hardware.

This function actually operates on a gpio_chip, so its prefix should
reflect that fact for consistency with other functions defined in
gpio/driver.h.

To unify how we connect cascaded IRQ chips to parent IRQs, if
NULL us passed as handler to the gpiochip_set_chained_irqchip()
function, assume the chips is nested rather than chained, and
we still get the parent set up correctly by way of this function
call.
Alter the drivers for tc3589x and stmpe to use this to set up
their chained handlers as a demonstration of the usage.

The current prototype of gpiochip_request_own_desc() requires to obtain
a pointer to a descriptor. This is in contradiction to all other GPIO
request schemes, and imposes an extra step of obtaining a descriptor to
drivers. Most drivers actually cannot even perform that step since the
function that does it (gpichip_get_desc()) is gpiolib-private.
Change gpiochip_request_own_desc() to return a descriptor from a
(chip, hwnum) tuple and update users of this function (currently
gpiolib-acpi only).

Both functions were introduced to let gpio drivers request their own
gpio pins. Without exporting the functions, this can however only be
used by gpio drivers built into the kernel.
Secondary impact is that the functions can not currently be used by
platform initialization code associated with the gpio-pca953x driver.
This code permits auto-export of gpio pins through platform data, but
if this functionality is used, the module can no longer be unloaded due
to the problem solved with the introduction of gpiochip_request_own_desc
and gpiochip_free_own_desc.
Export both function so they can be used from modules and from
platform initialization code.

gpio_lock/unlock_as_irq() are working with (chip, offset) arguments and
are thus not using the old integer namespace. Therefore, there is no
reason to have gpiod variants of these functions working with
descriptors, especially since the (chip, offset) tuple is more suitable
to the users of these functions (GPIO drivers, whereas GPIO descriptors
are targeted at GPIO consumers).

gpiolib now exports a new descriptor-based interface which deprecates
the older integer-based one. This patch documents this new interface and
also takes the opportunity to brush-up the GPIO documentation a little
bit.
The new descriptor-based interface follows the same consumer/driver
model as many other kernel subsystems (e.g. clock, regulator), so its
documentation has similarly been splitted into different files.
The content of the former documentation has been reused whenever it
made sense; however, some of its content did not apply to the new
interface anymore and have this been removed. Likewise, new sections
like the mapping of GPIOs to devices have been written from scratch.
The deprecated legacy-based documentation is still available, untouched,
under Documentation/gpio/gpio-legacy.txt.
