OK, so the story I'm getting is that each driver needs to set up its
own mechanism for obtaining GPIO numbers - it needs to create its own
lookup mechanism.  That's fine, I can do that; I just thought it made
sense to make use of the information that's already there.

Andrew, you might as well drop the patch.

(I'm less worried about the uniqueness side, BTW; it just means drivers
need to create meaningful names for their GPIOs.)

Thanks,

jon
