If a GPIO driver uses gpiochip_add_pin_range() (which is usually the
case for GPIO/PFC combos), the GPIO hogging mechanism configured from DT
doesn't work:
requesting hog GPIO led1-high (chip sh73a0_pfc, offset 20) failed
The actual error code is -517 == -EPROBE_DEFER.
The problem is that PFC+GPIO registration is handled in multiple steps:
1. pinctrl_register(),
2. gpiochip_add(),
3. gpiochip_add_pin_range().
Configuration of the hogs is handled in gpiochip_add():
gpiochip_add
of_gpiochip_add
of_gpiochip_scan_hogs
gpiod_hog
gpiochip_request_own_desc
__gpiod_request
chip->request
pinctrl_request_gpio
pinctrl_get_device_gpio_range
However, at this point the GPIO controller hasn't been added to
pinctrldev_list yet, so the range can't be found, and the operation fails
with -EPROBE_DEFER.
To fix this, add a "gpio-ranges" property to the gpio device node, so
the ranges are added by of_gpiochip_add_pin_range(), which is called by
of_gpiochip_add() before the call to of_gpiochip_scan_hogs().
