SubjectRe: [PATCH] gpiolib: add gpio_request/free_irq

I'm not keen on this.

- At best it's a convenience layer ... for something that's
not the least bit awkward to do otherwise.

- Coupling it to gpiolib sort of defeats the point of saying
that gpiolib is just an *implementation* of the interface.
Where's the code to run for non-gpiolib platforms?

- Since it implicitly couples gpio_request() to a flavor of
request_irq(), it precludes sharing those IRQs.

Basically, board setup can know that the GPIO is being used
as an IRQ, and do the request()/direction_input() before it
passes gpio_to_irq() to the driver. That's worked in every
case I've happened across so far...
