The msm_gpiomux.h header appears to be very "msm" specific, especially
with the #ifdef CONFIG_MSM_GPIOMUX in it. Wouldn't it be cleaner to
just move it to arch/arm/mach-msm/include/mach/msm_gpiomux.h?

I don't see a reason why this header needs/should be available for
the general public in /include/linux.
