GPIO handles
Registered by
Linus Walleij
The GPIO subsystem currently has no abstract gpio_get() akin to clk_get(), regulator_get() or pinctrl_get(). This means GPIO numbers are passed as integer numbers, often as platform data (there is no resource type for them either). This must come to an end, we need abstract, opaque gpio handles just like the clocks and regulators and operate on these using accessors.
