From 1a989d0f1de8f5a150b35e1e8181cc1abc139162 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandre Courbot Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2013 01:29:24 +0900 Subject: gpiolib: link all gpio_chips using a list Add a list member to gpio_chip that allows all chips to be parsed quickly. The current method requires parsing the entire GPIO integer space, which is painfully slow. Using a list makes many chip operations that involve lookup or parsing faster, and also simplifies the code. It is also necessary to eventually get rid of the global gpio_desc[] array. The list of gpio_chips is always ordered by base GPIO number to ensure chips traversal is done in the right order.
