Afaict this still means that if I boot this kernel with yesterday's dtb
(without gpio-ranges) I will not get any gpios. This isn't okay. 

@Linus, I count 24 callers of gpiochip_add_pin_range(). Is this
suggestion reasonable?

Can we make gpiochip_add_pin_range() check if there's already a
gpio-range and return ok in some way?
