Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO development for the v5.7 kernel cycle.
Core and userspace API:
- The userspace API KFIFOs have been imoproved with locks that do not
block interrupts. This makes us better at getting events to
userspace without blocking or disturbing new events arriving in the
same time. This was reviewed by the KFIFO maintainer Stefani. This
is a generic improvement which paves the road for similar
improvements in other subsystems.
- We provide a new ioctl() for monitoring changes in the line
information, such as when multiple clients are taking lines and
giving them back, possibly reconfiguring them in the process: we
can now monitor that and not get stuck with stale static
