I was waiting for your opinion about the last warning stuff Gregory
commented on PATCH 1 since it is not a good way to distinguish between
normal (1 gpiochip) and special cases (multiple gpiochips). I think
since that can happen normally we can just remove the warning. With
that clear I properly fix it up and resend v2.
