2009-01-15gpio: fix probe() error return in gpio driver probesBen Dooks
A number of drivers in drivers/gpio return -ENODEV when confronted with missing setup parameters such as the platform data. However, returning -ENODEV causes the driver layer to silently ignore the driver as it assumes the probe did not find anything and was only speculative. To make life easier to discern why a driver is not being attached, change to returning -EINVAL, which is a better description of the fact that the driver data was not valid. Also add a set of dev_dbg() statements to the error paths to provide an better explanation of the error as there may be more that one point in the driver.

2008-10-16gpio: max7301: fix the race between chip addition and pins reconfigurationDmitry Baryshkov
There is a small race and code ugliness in max7301: pins are reconfigured after the chip is registered. Swap these calls so that the device is registered in correct state. Also this fixes the comile-time warning about unchecked gpiochip_remove.

2008-10-16spi: core and gpio expanders use subsys_initDavid Brownell
Make the SPI external GPIO expander drivers register themselves at subsys_initcall() time when they're statically linked, and make the SPI core do its driver model initialization earlier so that's safe. SOC-integrated GPIOs are available starting very early -- often before initcalls start to run, or earily in arch_initcall() at latest -- so this improves consistency, letting more subsystems rely on GPIOs being usable by their own subsys_initcall() code.

2008-07-22gpio: gpio driver for max7301 SPI GPIO expanderJuergen Beisert
Maxim's MAX7301 is an SPI GPIO expander with 28 GPIOs. Note: MAX7301's interrupt feature is not supported yet.
