I must say I really like this patch. This is exactly how we should
proceed with everything also for device tree, getting rid of
<linux/of_gpio.h> - OK maybe some time will be required but
surely we can get there.

I'm giving subsystem maintainers some grace time but this is a
real important series for v3.14.
