Awesome.

branch name is devm_gpiochip.
https://github.com/ldewangan/linux-upstream/tree/devm_gpiochip
I've pulled this branch into my tree on a separate branch for
testing. I pushed the tree to kernel.org so that the zeroday
autobuilders can have a go at it.

Thanks you very much for taking care.


If everything goes well I plan to merge this for v4.6, then we
can merge the changes in pin control and other subsystems
for v4.7.
Yes, once this is there, we can grep all over subsystem and push the change.

I am seeing lots of code reduction on pincontrol driver side once we have devm_ for pincontrol register and gpiochip_add_data().

Thanks,
Laxman
