Hi Arnd,

thanks for your further suggestions. I'm integrating them, comments below:

Right. I'm actually removing it now since for enabling individual GPIO
lines selectively, it's not flexible enough, anyway: only the first n
lines of a GPIO "group" could be chosen.

However, I will keep (and document) the possible status="disabled"
property to disable whole GPIO groups of LPC32xx, if really necessary.

Looks like all LPC32xx variants have and will have the same GPIO layout.

To fix disruptiveness of this patch, I'll make it support both DT and
non-DT so it doesn't depend on LPC32xx being switched together
atomically. (Posting below).

if (pdev->dev.of_node) {
for_each_child_of_node(pdev->dev.of_node, node) {
if (of_device_is_available(node)) {
u32 index;
struct gpio_chip *chip;
if (of_property_read_u32(node, "reg", &index) < 0)
continue;
if (index >= ARRAY_SIZE(lpc32xx_gpiochip))
continue;
chip = &lpc32xx_gpiochip[index].chip;
chip->of_node = of_node_get(node);
gpiochip_add(chip);
}
}
} else {
for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(lpc32xx_gpiochip); i++)
gpiochip_add(&lpc32xx_gpiochip[i].chip);
}
