Well, at the beginning I thought adding support for pca9505 was just a matter
of a couple of lines to add. Then I realized that I need to handle the 40 bits
case, and I ended up refactoring all access to the registers. So now I am on it,
it seems I am volunteer to continue to improve this driver.

However I won't be able to test it, the only PXA based platform I have is a
Zaurus SL-C3100 which embeds a PXA270 if I remember well, but I doubt it come
with gpio expander on i2c.
