As per commit log, the issue seen with request->debounce->free()
sequence and hence on free, debounce state needs to be cleared.
Next gpio_set_debounce() should set the debounce mask right so
the patch seems to be right.

But there is one more case which might break because of this patch.
As part of idle, we might end up with below without gpio_free()
omap2_gpio_prepare_for_idle()
  ->pm_runtime_put_sync_suspend()
   -> omap_gpio_runtime_suspend()
    ->_gpio_dbck_disable()

And last call will clear the debounce mask state which will lost and
hence the debounce clock won't be enabled on resume.

I let Kevin comment whether this is the valid case or not.
