This looks to me like doing the right thing and making sure that
the GPIO drivers get probed before their consumers and thus
speed up boot.

I guess I should get on with adding device links at runtime
as well, both for GPIO and pin control so that things work
with runtime-added devices and boardfiles and ACPI, if I
understand correctly it's fine to add the same link twice, it
will just be ignored?
