Following commit 036e126c72eb ("pinctrl: intel: Split
intel_pinctrl_add_padgroups() for better maintenance"),
gpiochip_get_desc() is broken on some Kaby Lake R devices (specifically
a Microsoft Surface Book 2), returning -EINVAL for GPIOs that in reality
should be there (they are defined in ACPI and have been accessible
previously). Due to this, gpiod_get() fails with -ENOENT.

Reverting this commit fixes that issue and the GPIOs in question are
accessible again.

I would like to have more information.
Can you enable PINCTRL and GPIO debug options in the kernel, and show dmesg
output (when kernel command line has 'ignore_loglevel' option) for both working
and non-working cases?

Sure.

Here are dmesg logs for:

- Kernel v5.12-rc2 (not working): https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/HVZybcvQDH/

Thanks!

Yeah, yeah... Please, test my patch, I am quite sure it will fix the issue.


It does indeed, thanks again!
