With -Werror this triggers:

Remove the dead wrapper.

Please add Reported-by credits, at least Nathan as he bisected it.

So why do we need __lpi_gpio_write()?

Hi Krzysztof,

Thanks, good point.

I will respin with:
Reported-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@xxxxxxxxxx>

About __lpi_gpio_write(): it is still needed for the in-callers path where runtime PM is already held and we only need the raw MMIO helper. The unused wrapper is lpi_gpio_write(), so this fix removes only that dead function.

Thanks,
Ajay
