ACPI / gpio: Add hogging support
GPIO hogging means that the GPIO controller can "hog" and configure certain GPIOs without need for a driver or userspace to do that. This is useful in open-connected boards where BIOS cannot possibly know beforehand which devices will be connected to the board. This adds GPIO hogging mechanism to ACPI analogous to Device Tree.

+Other supported properties
+--------------------------
+
+Following Device Tree compatible device properties are also supported by
+_DSD device properties for GPIO controllers:
+
+- gpio-hog
+- output-high
+- output-low
+- input
+- line-name
+
+Example:
+
+ Name (_DSD, Package () {
+ // _DSD Hierarchical Properties Extension UUID
+ ToUUID("dbb8e3e6-5886-4ba6-8795-1319f52a966b"),
+ Package () {
+ Package () {"hog-gpio8", "G8PU"}
+ }
+ })
+
+ Name (G8PU, Package () {
+ ToUUID("daffd814-6eba-4d8c-8a91-bc9bbf4aa301"),
+ Package () {
+ Package () {"gpio-hog", 1},
+ Package () {"gpios", Package () {8, 0}},
+ Package () {"output-high", 1},
+ Package () {"line-name", "gpio8-pullup"},
+ }
+ })
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio.txt for more information
+about these properties.
