NBANK() macro assumes that ngpios is a multiple of 8(BANK_SZ) and
hence results in 0 banks for PCA9536 which has just 4 gpios. This is
wrong as PCA9356 has 1 bank with 4 gpios. This results in uninitialized
PCA953X_INVERT register. Fix this by using DIV_ROUND_UP macro in
NBANK().

Patch applied.

Is this really a regression or affecting systems in development?

Which machine/device tree makes this problematic?

Yours,

I observed this on am335x-icev2 evm which is system in development.
Basically, variable with uninitialized value (junk) gets written to
PCA953X_INVERT register(in device_pca953x_init()) causing driver to
report wrong gpio pin status. So, this bug will affect any platform with
PCA9536 chip. Quick grep on arch/*/boot/dts/ folder shows one platform
already using pca9536 chip. Hence, I added Cc to stable kernel.
