arm:collie_defconfig broken since commit ff2b135922 ("gpio: make the gpiochip a real device")

[Guenter Roeck]

Hi,

arm:collie_defconfig is broken since commit ff2b135922 ("gpio: make the gpiochip a real device").

Test is quite simple:

Build arm:collie_defconfig, run with
	qemu-system-arm -M collie -kernel arch/arm/boot/zImage --append "console=ttySA1" -monitor null -nographic

Prior to the above commit, there is console output (the image crashes because it
doesn't have a root file system, but that is irrelevant). After the commit, the
console is silent.

Let me know if I can do anything to help tracking down the problem.

Thanks,
Guenter
