This reverts commits 1979a28075 ("gpiolib: replace the GPIO device
mutex with a read-write semaphore") and 65a828bab1 ("gpiolib: use
a mutex to protect the list of GPIO devices").
Unfortunately the legacy GPIO API that's still used in older code has to
translate numbers from the global GPIO numberspace to descriptors. This
results in a GPIO device lookup in every call to legacy functions. Some
of those functions - like gpio_set/get_value() - can be called from
atomic context so taking a sleeping lock that is an RW semaphore results
in an error.
We'll probably have to protect this list with SRCU.

If the "ngpios" property is specified, bgpio_bits is calculated

While any of the GPIO cdev syscalls is in progress, the kernel can call
gpiochip_remove() (for instance, when a USB GPIO expander is disconnected)
which will set gdev->chip to NULL after which any subsequent access will
cause a crash.
To avoid that: use an RW-semaphore in which the syscalls take it for
reading (so that we don't needlessly prohibit the user-space from calling
syscalls simultaneously) while gpiochip_remove() takes it for writing so
that it can only happen once all syscalls return.

Using CLOCK_REALTIME as the source for event timestamps is crucial for
some specific applications, particularly those requiring timetamps
relative to a PTP clock, so provide an option to switch the event
timestamp source from the default CLOCK_MONOTONIC to CLOCK_REALTIME.
Note that CLOCK_REALTIME was the default source clock for GPIO until
Linux 5.7 when it was changed to CLOCK_MONOTONIC due to issues with the
shifting of the realtime clock.
Providing this option maintains the CLOCK_MONOTONIC as the default,
while also providing a path forward for those dependent on the pre-5.7
behaviour.

Add support for setting debounce on a line via the GPIO uAPI.
Where debounce is not supported by hardware, a software debounce is
provided.
The implementation of the software debouncer waits for the line to be
stable for the debounce period before determining if a level change,
and a corresponding edge event, has occurred. This provides maximum
protection against glitches, but also introduces a debounce_period
latency to edge events.
The software debouncer is integrated with the edge detection as it
utilises the line interrupt, and integration is simpler than getting
the two to interwork. Where software debounce AND edge detection is
required, the debouncer provides both.

Currently there is no way for user-space to be informed about changes
in status of GPIO lines e.g. when someone else requests the line or its
config changes. We can only periodically re-read the line-info. This
is fine for simple one-off user-space tools, but any daemon that provides
a centralized access to GPIO chips would benefit hugely from an event
driven line info synchronization.
This patch adds a new ioctl() that allows user-space processes to reuse
the file descriptor associated with the character device for watching
any changes in line properties. Every such event contains the updated
line information.
Currently the events are generated on three types of status changes: when
a line is requested, when it's released and when its config is changed.
The first two are self-explanatory. For the third one: this will only
happen when another user-space process calls the new SET_CONFIG ioctl()
as any changes that can happen from within the kernel (i.e.
set_transitory() or set_debounce()) are of no interest to user-space.

Pull gpio updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of the GPIO changes for the v5.2 kernel cycle. A bit
later than usual because I was ironing out my own mistakes. I'm
holding some stuff back for the next kernel as a result, and this
should be a healthy and well tested batch.
Core changes:
- The gpiolib MMIO driver has been enhanced to handle two direction
registers, i.e. one register to set lines as input and one register
to set lines as output. It turns out some silicon engineer thinks
the ability to configure a line as input and output at the same
time makes sense, this can be debated but includes a lot of analog
electronics reasoning, and the registers are there and need to be
handled consistently. Unsurprisingly, we enforce the lines to be
either inputs or outputs in such schemes.
- Send in the proper argument value to .set_config() dispatched to
the pin control subsystem. Nobody used it before, now someone does,
so fix it to work as expected.
- The ACPI gpiolib portions can now handle pin bias setting (pull up
or pull down). This has been in the ACPI spec for years and we
finally have it properly integrated with Linux GPIOs. It was based
on an observation from Andy Schevchenko that Thomas Petazzoni's
changes to the core for biasing the PCA950x GPIO expander actually
happen to fit hand-in-glove with what the ACPI core needed. Such
nice synergies happen sometimes.
New drivers:
- A new driver for the Mellanox BlueField GPIO controller. This is
using 64bit MMIO registers and can configure lines as inputs and
outputs at the same time and after improving the MMIO library we
handle it just fine. Interesting.
- A new IXP4xx proper gpiochip driver with hierarchical interrupts
should be coming in from the ARM SoC tree as well.
Driver enhancements:
- The PCA053x driver handles the CAT9554 GPIO expander.
- The PCA053x driver handles the NXP PCAL6416 GPIO expander.
- Wake-up support on PCA053x GPIO lines.
- OMAP now does a nice asynchronous IRQ handling on wake-ups by
letting everything wake up on edges, and this makes runtime PM work
as expected too.
Misc:
- Several cleanups such as devres fixes.
- Get rid of some languager comstructs that cause problems when
compiling with LLVMs clang.
- Documentation review and update"

The library uses enum gpio_lookup_flags to define the possible
characteristics of GPIO pin. Since enumerator listed only individual
bits the common use of it is in a form of a bitmask of
gpio_lookup_flags GPIO_* values. The more correct type for this is
unsigned long.
Due to above convert all users to use unsigned long instead of
enum gpio_lookup_flags except enumerator definition.
While here, make field and parameter descriptions consistent as well.

This commit adds support for configuring the pull-up and pull-down

pull-up/pull-down is already possible through the pinctrl subsystem,
some GPIO controllers, especially simple ones such as GPIO expanders
on I2C, don't have any pinmuxing capability and therefore do not use
the pinctrl subsystem.
This commit implements the GPIO_PULL_UP and GPIO_PULL_DOWN flags,
which can be used from the Device Tree, to enable a pull-up or
pull-down resistor on a given GPIO.
The flag is simply propagated all the way to the core GPIO subsystem,
where it is used to call the gpio_chip ->set_config callback with the
appropriate existing PIN_CONFIG_BIAS_* values.
