we have sysfs interface to dump register as /sys/kernel/debug/tega_gpio
On this patch, I moved the tegra_gpio_info pointer as data for 
s->private so that we will not need the global variable.
inode->i_private contains the pointer of the passed data. Hence we do 
not need to pass the pointe ro pointer of data. If we dont do then we 
will get wrong data pointer for tegra_gpio_info.

Thanks for RB.
