I'd suggest that we immediately start solving the ARCH_NR_GPIO
definition a single zImage friendly way - rather than throwing a
definition into mach/gpio.h, add this into asm/gpio.h:

#if CONFIG_ARCH_NR_GPIO > 0
#define ARCH_NR_GPIO CONFIG_ARCH_NR_GPIO
#endif

and in arch/arm/Kconfig:

config ARCH_NR_GPIO
int
default 1024 if ARCH_SHMOBILE || ARCH_TEGRA
... etc ...
default 0

The list should be sorted in numeric order, largest first.

This then gives us a path to eliminate the ARCH_NR_GPIO definitions
from mach/gpio.h - and should allow more mach/gpio.h to become empty.
