Oh, thx.

It seems to implement a pseudo-irqchip driver. I've already though about
doing that, but didn't think its worth it, just for my driver alone.
I've implemented a few irq handling cb's directly the driver. But since
we already have it, I'll reconsider :)

BUT: this wasn't exactly my question :p

I've been looking for some more direct notification callback for gpio
consumers: here the consumer would register itself as a listener on
some gpio_desc and called back when something changes (with data what
exactly changed, eg. "gpio #3 input switched to high").

Seems we currently just have the indirect path via interrupts.
