*can* sleep means that it requires a sleeping context to run, if your
controller is fine with that, there are no worries. OTOH if you want
to run this in an atomic context, then consumers can't do with that
kind of controller. What I meant above (and you stripped it here) is
to add a patch that will fix that and set it based on
gpio_regmap_config.
