[patch 2.6.26-rc6-mm] gpio: updates to sysfs support

From: David Brownell
Date: Sun Jun 29 2008 - 23:51:00 EST


Update and bugfix the patch adding sysfs GPIO support:

* Bugfix: the test initializing the IS_OUT flag for output-only
GPIOs had the sense inverted.

* Update: when gpio_chip.dev is provided, list it in the debugfs
dump. Device nodes are unique; the "label" isn't.

The bug of course caused output-only GPIOs to misbehave, but it also
made just-exported (or generally: only-requested) GPIOs always appear
to be outputs in sysfs and debugfs. That's wrong more often than it's
right, although it gets corrected when the direction is assigned.
