GPIO was originally submitted as part of 8  patch series titled "[PATCH
0/8] Add support for UHS modes in TI's J721e and J7200 boards"

Rest of those patches need to be resubmitted after GPIO is accepted.

Can you apply patch 1/4 at least. Its fairly non-controversial. It will
help reduce patch backlog and fix some warnings too.

Thanks,
Sekhar
