Yes no problem. (I misremembered that it was Cadence, not Synopsys...)

When I look at the Cadence driver I see it needs some modifications
if it should work properly with GPIO ranges and interoperate with
pin controllers. It needs to call gpiochip_generic_request() and
gpiochip_generic_free() from its request/free functions, and
preferably also gpiochip_generic_config() which will extend
the gpiolib to call down to the pin controller and take control
over line properties.

But let's do that in a separate patch!
