I see Andy found more problems so fix those too..

Only
#include <linux/gpio/driver.h>

Not for bool drivers, right, as Andy pointed out.

Why is this named "template"?

There is nothing template about it, it is what you use.

If you keep it like this, name it madera_chip or something.

Pretty cool! Have you tested this with e.g. open drain or debounce?

Are you using device tree for this?

In that case add the range in the device tree instead.

The gpiolib will pick that up for you by default and you don't even need
this code. See
git grep 'gpio-ranges' arch/arm/boot/dts

If you're also using this with platform data or ACPI or whatever, then
this is fine.
