[PATCH 2/4] of/gpio: Add support for two-stage registration for the of_gpio_chips

I2C/SPI drivers allocate gpio_chip structure already, so we don't need
'struct gpio_chip gc' in the OF GPIO subsystem, instead we need to store
just a pointer, and then attach the already allocated gpio_chip to the
of_gpio_chip structure.

With this patch there are two ways to register OF GPIO controllers:

1. Allocating the of_gpio_chip structure and passing the
   &of_gc->gc pointer to the gpiochip_add. (Can use container_of
   to convert the gpio_chip to the of_gpio_chip.)

2. Allocating and registering the gpio_chip structure separately
   from the of_gpio_chip. (Since two allocations are separate,
   container_of won't work.)

As time goes by we'll kill the first option.
