Hi all,

There is a bug below.

I am using pctl->desc before retrieving it, thus dereferencing from a
null pointer.

We just have to move
pctl->chip.ngpio		= pctl->desc->npins;
after
pctl->desc = (struct axp20x_pctrl_desc *)of_device_get_match_data(dev);

Linus, I guess that I should send a patch to fix this or is there an
other way not to have to apply such a small and dumb patch?
