[PATCH] gpio: max732x: Add missing dev reference to gpiochip

[PATCH] gpio: max732x: Add missing dev reference to gpiochip

[Marek Vasut]

In case the gpiochip doesn't have the .dev field set, as is the case
in here, it is not possible to reference this device in DT as a GPIO
controller. A good example of this problem is that gpio-leds can not
be used when connected to this chip, the gpio-leds driver bails out
with -EPROBE_DEFER.

Fix this problem by setting the .dev field of the gpio_chip to the
parent i2c device.
