gpio: reference count the gpio device for each desc
Every time a descriptor is retrieved from the gpiolib, we issue module_get() to reference count the module supplying the GPIOs. We also need to call device_get() and device_put() as we also reference the backing gpio_device when doing this. Since the sysfs GPIO interface is using gpiod_get() this will also reference count the sysfs requests until all GPIOs are unexported. Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org>
