Hi Thomas,

thanks for your work on this.

I wonder whether it's worth to have more regular mapping, i.e.
*)	0 - 1x, 
	1 - 2x, 
	2 - 3x, 
	3 - 4x

It doesn't give as much advantage, and introduces an overhead of doing 
an additional remapping. However I find current mapping of the DT specifier
values to real driver strength slightly confusing. 
Perhaps unlikely, the future SoCs could have different meaning of the
register values.

nit: Could be simplified to:

	if (WARN_ON(gc->of_gpio_n_cells < 4))
		return -EINVAL;

The above functions can fail and IMHO ignoring the return value here
makes the system harder to debug. 

Assuming GPIO drive strength specifier mapping *) the following code could
do the remapping (not tested):

	unsigned int tmp = be32_to_cpu(gpio[3]);
	u32 drvstr = ((tmp >> 1) ^ tmp) & 1 ? ~tmp & 3 : tmp;
	
	s5p_gpio_set_drvstr(pin, drvstr);

Could the extra parentheses be dropped ?
