After reading the related code (search "gpio.h" in root source tree),
it seems what you said is correct, my guess is incorrect. :-(

Hmm... but better to get final conclusion after finish allmodconfig
compiling.

Now, I am compiling, and excuse me, I can not finish today because of
some issues (mainly for 'gcc 4.8.0', part for 'ld 2.22', and part for
kernel), I will 'process' them, hope can finish before 2013-08-31.


Welcome additional suggestions or completions.

Thanks.
