Overall this is very good and should be applied.

Please explain in a comment exactly why you need to include
these files. I think it should be the goal to get rid of this dependency.

It seems that the driver can be further simplified using GPIO_GENERIC
but we can deal with this later, once it is separate.

Can't you just use gpiochip_generic_config() and rely on the pinctrl
back-end to deal with this?

Normally this should not be needed with GPIOLIB_IRQCHIP but
since you are refactoring an existing driver it is acceptable to
keep for now.
