Hi Sricharan,

Without this patch today drivers do this:

gpio_request(gpio, "foo IRQ"); // bank->mod_usage |= 1 << offset
gpio_direction_input(gpio);

and then request a IRQ with:

irq = gpio_to_irq(gpio);
request_irq(irq, ...);

later on its cleanup path:

free_irq(irq, dev);
gpio_free(gpio) // bank->mod_usage &= ~(1 << offset);

So if you clear the flag on gpio_irq_shutdown then bank module won't be enabled
after a suspend making drivers using the GPIO after freeing the IRQ to fail.

So the idea is to have something like this:

a) Drivers that request both the GPIO and IRQ

gpio_request(gpio, "foo IRQ"); // bank->mod_usage |= 1 << offset
gpio_direction_input(gpio);

irq = gpio_to_irq(gpio);
request_irq(irq, ...); // bank->irq_usage |= 1 << offset

free_irq(irq, dev); // bank->irq_usage &= ~(1 << offset);
gpio_free(gpio) // bank->mod_usage &= ~(1 << offset);

b) Drivers that just request the IRQ:

irq = gpio_to_irq(gpio);
request_irq(irq, ...); // bank->irq_usage |= 1 << offset
free_irq(irq, dev); // bank->irq_usage &= ~(1 << offset);

So irq_usage or mod_usage is set means that the bank has to be enabled and if
both are not set means that the bank module can be disabled.
