[RFC/RFT PATCH] gpiolib: reverse-assign the fwnode to struct gpio_chip

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@xxxxxxxxxx>

struct gpio_chip is not only used to carry the information needed to
set-up a GPIO device but is also used in all GPIOLIB callbacks and is
passed to the matching functions of lookup helpers.

In that last case, it is currently impossible to match a GPIO device by
fwnode unless it was explicitly assigned to the chip in the provider
code. If the fwnode is taken from the parent device, the pointer in
struct gpio_chip will remain NULL.

If we have a parent device but gc->fwnode was not assigned by the
provider, let's assign it ourselves so that lookup by fwnode can work in
all cases.

This is something that Dipen reported with one of the tegra drivers where
a GPIO lookup by fwnode does not work because the fwnode pointer in struct
gpio_chip is NULL. This patch addresses this use-case.
