I actually want to get rid of of_mm_gpiochip_add_data() altogether and
just replace all of them with regular gpio_chip, as stated in the GPIO TODO.

Hmmm... who is using this...

$ git grep of_mm_gpiochip_add_data
arch/powerpc/platforms/4xx/gpio.c: ret =
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(np, mm_gc, ppc4xx_gc);
arch/powerpc/platforms/8xx/cpm1.c: return
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(np, mm_gc, cpm1_gc);
arch/powerpc/platforms/8xx/cpm1.c: return
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(np, mm_gc, cpm1_gc);
arch/powerpc/sysdev/cpm_common.c: return
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(np, mm_gc, cpm2_gc);
drivers/gpio/gpio-altera.c: ret = of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(node,
&altera_gc->mmchip, altera_gc);
drivers/gpio/gpio-mm-lantiq.c: return
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(pdev->dev.of_node, &chip->mmchip, chip);
drivers/gpio/gpio-mpc5200.c: ret =
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(ofdev->dev.of_node, &chip->mmchip, chip);
drivers/gpio/gpio-mpc5200.c: ret =
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(ofdev->dev.of_node, &chip->mmchip, chip);
drivers/soc/fsl/qe/gpio.c: ret =
of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(np, mm_gc, qe_gc);

Aha PPC and MIPS, OK so not the most familiar territory for either of us to go
and fix.

I guess it's fine if you refactor this for the time being, but let's make it
go away soon.
