That is a good point.

One reason for this patch is I think it makes sense to add gpio-ranges
properties as they describe the relationship between a gpio line and
pin control register that exists in the hardware.  For example, GPMC_A0
pin has mode 7 which is labeled gpio1_16. The conf_gpmc_a0 register is
at offset 840h which makes it pin 16.

The other reason is that I would like to patch omap_gpio_set_config()
to call gpiochip_generic_config() for PIN_CONFIG_PULL_{UP,DOWN}. It
currently fails at pinctrl_get_device_gpio_range():

  omap_gpio_set_config()  
  |- gpiochip_generic_config()
     |- pinctrl_gpio_set_config()
        |- gpio_to_pin()
           |- pinctrl_get_device_gpio_range() [no gpio-ranges so fails]


Thank you,
Drew
