[PATCH] gpiolib: use platform GPIO mappings as fallback

[Alexandre Courbot]

For platforms that use device tree or ACPI as the standard way to look
GPIOs up, allow the platform-defined GPIO mappings to be used as a
fallback. This may be useful for platforms that need extra GPIOs mappings
not defined by the firmware.
