+Subject: [PATCH] gpio: add a data pointer to gpio_chip
+
+This adds a void * pointer to gpio_chip so that driver can
+assign and retrieve some states. This is done to get rid of
+container_of() calls for gpio_chips embedded inside state
+containers, so we can remove the need to have the gpio_chip
+or later (planned) struct gpio_device be dynamically allocated
+at registration time, so that its struct device can be properly
+reference counted and not bound to its parent device (e.g.
+a platform_device) but instead live on after unregistration
+if it is opened by e.g. a char device or sysfs.
+
+The data is added with the new function gpiochip_add_data()
+and for compatibility we add static inline wrapper function
+gpiochip_add() that will call gpiochip_add_data() with
+NULL as argument. The latter will be removed once we have
+exorcised gpiochip_add() from the kernel.
+
+gpiochip_get_data() is added as a static inline accessor
+for drivers to quickly get their data out.
