If you want the GPIO usage to be known to the GPIO subsystem, then
wouldn't you call gpio_request() here rather than omap_gpio_request()?
The above code will certainly do enough so that the OMAP GPIO HW is
fully enabled as you need, but I thought the idea was to also prevent
some other code successfully running gpio_request() on that same GPIO?
