[PATCH 0/4] GPIO LIB API support for OF and PowerPC

Hi all,

Here are few patches needed to support GPIO LIB API on PowerPC.
It would be great to see these applied for the 2.6.26...

For now we use static gpio base allocation, later we'll switch to
the dynamic bases. The patch below shows the idea of what needs to be
done when dynamic gpio base allocation patch[1] will hit the mainline.
