[patch 03/19] chardev: pc8736x_gpio - upgrage scx200_gpio init per ldd3: msg#00012

Subject: [patch 03/19] chardev: pc8736x_gpio - upgrage scx200_gpio init per ldd3
GPIO SUPPORT FOR SCx200 & PC8736x

This patch-set reworks the 2.4 vintage scx200_gpio driver for modern
2.6, and refactors GPIO support to reuse it in a new driver for the
GPIO on PC-8736x chips.


03/19. patch.api26:

Adopt many modern 2.6 coding practices, ala LDD3.  Changes here
limited to newer (than 2.4) initialization calls from module init:
cdev_init, cdev_add, *_chrdev_region, mkdev
