From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

These two patches are left from my cleanup series, finishing off the
work to turn off CONFIG_GPIOLIB_LEGACY by default, and removing the
include/linux/gpio.h header.

I had originally planned to send these during the merge window after all
the prerequisites made it in, but didn't finish that before my vacation,
so I'm sending it now.  I suppose this makes them 7.4 material now,
but at least the first one could stil be fast-tracked to 7.3 if there
is a good reason.

The second patch has to remove a few more leftover <linux/gpio.h>
inclusions that made it into 7.3-rc1 either from new code or from
conflicts with other changes.

Arnd Bergmann (2):
  gpiolib: turn off legacy interface by default
  gpiolib: remove linux/gpio.h

With acks from SH and MIPS maintainers, I can take it for v7.4 through the
GPIO tree.
