[PATCH v2 0/4] ARM: pxa: attach software nodes to the GPIO controllers

Convert GPIO controllers and their consumers on the PXA platform to using
"attached" software nodes. Since everything happens in a bord-file, it's
quite straightforward. We technically now have a way of passing an
unregistered software node to platform_device_register_full() but that
requires using struct platform_device_info and since the existing
platform devices are either referenced from other places or defined in a
different compilation unit, I wanted to reduce the impact of the changes
I can't test and went with the older method.
