[PATCH RFC 03/15 v5] gpiolib: Fix default attributes for class

[Roland Stigge]

There is a race condition between creating a gpio or gpiochip device and adding
default attribues. This patch fixes this by defining the default attributes as
dev_attrs of the class. For this, it was necessary to create a separate
gpiochip_class besides gpio_class.
