This looks good but just doesn't apply. Look:

git am --signoff brunner2.patch
Tillämpar: gpio: Fix bit masking in Kontron PLD GPIO driver
error: patch misslyckades: drivers/gpio/gpio-kempld.c:46
error: drivers/gpio/gpio-kempld.c: patchen kan inte tillämpas

Then:
patch -p1 < brunner2.patch
patching file drivers/gpio/gpio-kempld.c

I think there may be some whitespace mangling in your client
or mail server or whatever.

I had the same problem with the previous patch but hand-coded it
right since it was just a oneline.

Please try to figure out what is causing this.
