Hi Andy

Sorry; some more clarification here if you have time please:

1. Do you mean here, register a new gpio_chip providing GPIOs to the
sensors, and just have the .set() callback for that function set the
corresponding line against the INT3472 device?
2. I thought custom GPIO lookup tables was what I was doing, are you
referring to something else?
3. I guess you mean something like of_find_gpio() and acpi_find_gpio()
here? As far as I can see there isn't currently a swnodes
equivalent...we could just pass it via reference of course but it would
mean the sensor drivers would all need to account for that.
