[PATCH v2] gpio: set device type for GPIO chips

From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Mon Feb 05 2024 - 05:08:23 EST


From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx>

It's useful to have the device type information for those sub-devices
that are actually GPIO chips registered with GPIOLIB. While at it: use
the device type struct to setup the release callback which is the
preferred way to use the device API.
