Subject: gpio: introduce a header for symbols shared by suppliers and consumers
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fa4a3a95139e7293c1333a33bd7b19e7261e3bd0;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

gpio: introduce a header for symbols shared by suppliers and consumers

GPIO_LINE_DIRECTION_IN/OUT definitions are used both in supplier (GPIO
controller drivers) as well as consumer code. In order to not force the
consumers to include gpio/driver.h or - even worse - to redefine these
values, create a new header file - gpio/defs.h - and move them over
there. Include this header from both gpio/consumer.h and gpio/driver.h.
