Awesome, thanks for your persistence.

Could you include them?
This patch adds gpiolib support for the IXP4xx platform, which fixes the
compilation of several ixp4xx platforms, e.g.:
In file included from arch/arm/mach-ixp4xx/include/mach/gpio.h:72,
from /home/frogger/projects/server/linux/arch/arm/include/asm/gpio.h:9,
from include/linux/gpio.h:30,
from arch/arm/mach-ixp4xx/nslu2-setup.c:19:
include/asm-generic/gpio.h: In function 'gpio_get_value_cansleep':
include/asm-generic/gpio.h:218: error: implicit declaration of function '__gpio_get_value'
include/asm-generic/gpio.h: In function 'gpio_set_value_cansleep':
include/asm-generic/gpio.h:224: error: implicit declaration of function '__gpio_set_value'
And:
The problem was introduced with commit eb9ae7f2a381 ("gpio: fix build
error in include/asm-generic/gpio.h").

If 3.1.y were still maintained, do I understand correctly that it
would not need this because it lacks eb9ae7f2a381?

This is bigger than the usual stable-kernel-rules.txt standard (100
lines with context), but the gpio.h change leaves me so happy that I
suspect it should be okay. :) If it isn't, we can cross that bridge
later.
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
