[RFT PATCH] gpio: eic-sprd: use atomic notifiers to notify all chips about irqs

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx>

Calling gpiochip_find() from interrupt handler in this driver is an
abuse of the GPIO API. It only happens to work because nobody added a
might_sleep() to it and the lock used by GPIOLIB is a spinlock.

Both will soon be changed as we're limiting both the number of
interfaces allowed to be called from atomic context as well as making
struct gpio_chip private to the GPIO code that owns it. We'll also
switch to protecting the global GPIO device list with a mutex as there
is no reason to allow changes to it from interrupt handlers.

Instead of iterating over all SPRD chips and looking up each
corresponding GPIO chip, let's make each SPRD GPIO controller register
with a notifier chain. The chain will be called at interrupt so that
every chip that already probed will be notified. The rest of the
interrupt handling remains the same. This should result in faster code as
we're avoiding iterating over the list of all GPIO devices.

I only build-tested it. Please take it for a ride, I hope this works.
