This series adds a new GPIO testing module based on configfs committable items
and sysfs. The goal is to provide a testing driver that will be configurable
at runtime (won't need module reload) and easily extensible. The control over
the attributes is also much more fine-grained than in gpio-mockup.

This series also contains a respin of the patches I sent separately to the
configfs maintainers - these patches implement the concept of committable
items that was well defined for a long time but never actually completed.

Apart from the new driver itself, its selftests and the configfs patches, this
series contains some changes to the bitmap API - most importantly: it adds
devres managed variants of bitmap_alloc() and bitmap_zalloc().
FYI The configfs patches from this series have been on the mailing
list for months (long before the GPIO part) and have been re-sent
several times. You have neither acked or opposed these changes. I
don't want to delay the new testing driver anymore so I intend to
apply the entire series and take it upstream through the GPIO tree by
the end of this week.
Fine with me, feel free to add
Acked-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com>
where it's appropriate.
