Sparse can't see locking scheme used in ->get_multiple() and
->set_multiple() callbacks.

Refactor them to have better readability and make Sparse happy.

Replace the custom code to parse GPIO offsets and/or GPIO offset ranges
by a call to bitmap_parselist(), and an iteration over the returned bit
mask.
This should have no impact on the format of the configuration parameters
written to the "new_device" virtual file in sysfs.

In get_arg(), the variable start is pre-initialized, but overwritten
again in the first statement. Rework the assignment to not rely on
pre-initialization, to make the code easier to read.

GPIO controllers are exported to userspace using /dev/gpiochip*
character devices. Access control to these devices is provided by
standard UNIX file system permissions, on an all-or-nothing basis:
either a GPIO controller is accessible for a user, or it is not.
Currently no mechanism exists to control access to individual GPIOs.
Hence add a GPIO driver to aggregate existing GPIOs, and expose them as
a new gpiochip.
This supports the following use cases:
- Aggregating GPIOs using Sysfs
This is useful for implementing access control, and assigning a set
of GPIOs to a specific user or virtual machine.
- Generic GPIO Driver
This is useful for industrial control, where it can provide
userspace access to a simple GPIO-operated device described in DT,
cfr. e.g. spidev for SPI-operated devices.
