4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

This should ideally be paired with
commit 79bb71bd1d93197ce227fa167b450b633f30a52b
"gpio: make sure gpiod_to_irq() returns negative on NULL desc"
which went upstream yesterday.

Ack.

Lest Hans de Goede will be unhappy.

Well it is not so much me who will be unhappy as all
people running Linux on Allwinner SoCs who all of a sudden
will no longer have working usb unless we get either
both patches or neither patch in.

Regards,

Hans
