I tested these on my beagle/panda/omap4sdp and they seem to
work fine, also fixing the broken panda card detect (due to
missing card_detect_irq in the board file). There are still
issues however when I build twl4030-gpio as a module, which I
already commented on, and the fact that the init sequence now
works by luck :)
The other issue also is that the multiple insmod/rmmod test
suggested by Russell still fails, since the second time around
the gpio_requests in the board callback fail because they are
not freed when you do a module unload/unbind.
That would need this patch from me to add the .teardown
hooks
