Pramod,
sorry for delay in reply as I was travelling, still in Jet lag.

This change-set looks good.
IMO, you can send a patch for this change set.

Ideally this driver will not be removed, as other drivers depend on 
this, even the serial.

so I see no big achievement in adding the remove functionality, as this 
is going to be a dead code and would never be tested.

We should not re-parse the DT nodes once we are done with it in the probe.

I think the logic is very simple:

	while (nbanks--)
		gpiochip_remove(&info->banks[bank++].gpio_chip))
