This set of patches adds:

* Block GPIO API to gpiolib
* Sysfs support for GPIO API, to provide userland access
* Device interface for userland access (alternative to sysfs)
* Devicetree support to instantiate GPIO blocks via DT
* Example implementations in several gpio drivers since they need
  special accessor functions for block wise GPIO access (only for some
  selected drivers since the feature is optional and not suitable for
  all GPIO hardware)
* Fix for race condition in gpiolib on device creation

Testing branch available at: git://git.antcom.de/linux-2.6.git blockgpio

Changes since v11:
* Removed support for at91, since this one is currently in the migration
  process to pinctrl implementation

already done for 3.8

in Linus tree

Good, thanks for the note! So we include support for block GPIO in
pinctrl-at91.c now.

I guess the redundant code in arch/arm/mach-at91/gpio.c will be removed?

no we keep for non DT platform
