Merge tag 'gpio-v4.7-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio

Pull GPIO fixes from Linus Walleij:
 "A bunch of GPIO fixes for the v4.7 series:

   - Drop the lock before reading out the GPIO direction setting in
     drivers supporting the .get_direction() callback: some of them may
     be slowpath.

   - Flush GPIO direction setting before locking a GPIO as an IRQ: some
     electronics or other poking around in the registers behind our back
     may have happened, so flush the direction status before trying to
     lock the line for use by IRQs.

   - Bail out silently when asked to perform operations on NULL GPIO
     descriptors.  That is what all the get_*_optional() is about: we
     get optional GPIO handles, if they are not there, we get NULL.

   - Handle compatible ioctl() correctly: we need to convert the ioctl()
     pointer using compat_ptr() here like everyone else.

   - Disable the broken .to_irq() on the LPC32xx platform.  The whole
     irqchip infrastructure was replaced in the last merge window, and a
     new implementation will be needed"
