From: Bartosz Golaszewski <redacted> 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. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
