Hi Lakshmi,

thanks for your patch! Interesting chip! This is looking very good.

I bet Andy will also give you some attention to details unless you
had some already internally at Intel.

We don't do this kind of conditionals, either it is there or not.
Drop this define since it is always 1

This looks like something that can just be inlined into probe(), some HW
set-up?

It should be trivial to also implement

.set_config = gpiochip_generic_config

just like the other Intel drivers. This is great because it will make
things like the generic bit-banged GPIO I2C bus use the open drain
hardware support from the chip. (Etc)

It's usually better to put these ranges into the device tree. The
gpiolib core will handle it. See gpio-ranges in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt

Just inline that function's code in here.
