I think, the gpio base correction should be done here
What is the upside of doing it here? It has the downside that it needs
one more indention level. The only difference I see is that it doesn't
apply for mpuio devices then and wonder if that is relevant.

Unfortunately, this driver is still used by non-DT platforms, so above code will
 break build if !OF && !OF_GPIO
Without CONFIG_OF of_alias_get_id still exists and returns -ENOSYS which
should make the added code a nop. Does your compiler agree with you that
my patch breaks building the driver?

Best regards
Uwe
