Subject[patch 2.6.27-rc7] gpiolib: request/free hooks
Date
From: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>

Add a new internal mechanism to gpiolib to support low power
operations by letting gpio_chip instances see when their GPIOs
are in use. When no GPIOs are active, chips may be able to
enter lower powered runtime states by disabling clocks and/or
power domains.

needed to manage a signal that's in active use. That is, requesting a
GPIO can serve as a kind of lock.

+Some platforms may also use knowledge about what GPIOs are active for
+power management, such as by powering down unused chip sectors and, more
+easily, gating off unused clocks.

These two calls are optional because not not all current Linux platforms
offer such functionality in their GPIO support; a valid implementation
could return success for all gpio_request() calls. Unlike the other calls,
