Given that we have MAX_GPIOS, it would be better to declare a
bitmap of available gpios of that size on the stack and then
iterate through the bitmap and set bits for the available ones.
In the QCOM8001 case, that would be setting all bits up to
num_gpios, and in the QCOM8002 case it would be iterating through
the list of gpios from the DSD property and setting the bit for
that gpio number. This avoids explicitly allocating a list of
numbers that is freed almost immediately. Instead we just stack
256 / sizeof(unsigned long) words and set bits.

Hopefully we could lift the same logic into the core pinctrl msm
driver for usage on non-ACPI systems.
