Not sure if this is worth the change. We have to dynamically allocate the gpio chip struct, otherwise you would add several times the same struct in the gpio_chips list (when you call gpiochip_add), which will mess up the list. Actually, I just realized a gpio chip struct was allocated (line 854) but then the pointer to this chip was overridden with the address to the static definitions (line 861): http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/pinctrl/pinctrl-sunxi.c#L854 > >> 2) we have to tweak the pinctrl base field, otherwise the pin numbers >> overlap > Documentation says pin numbers are global, however the pinctrl core code > only looks up a pin by number in a pinctrl device only. > > Also I see mfd pinctrl drivers (ab8500, as3722) have pin numbers starting > from 0. So definitely some confusion there. I was talking about the base field of the gpio_chip struct. This field is used to give a unique gpio id from the GPIO point of view: unique_gpio_id = gpio_id_within_the_gpio_chip + chip->base. You can get an automatically assigned gpio base if you set it to -1 before calling gpiochip_add, but AFAIK (correct me if I'm wrong) this is used for hotplugable GPIO chips.
