Subject: gpio: pca953x: Fix corruption of other gpios in set_multiple.

From: Phil Reid <[email protected]>

commit 53f8d322234649b4d6f1515b20c127a577efd164 upstream.

gpiod_set_array_value_complex does not clear the bits field. Therefore when the drivers set_multiple funciton is called bits outside the mask are undefined and can be either set or not. So bank_val needs to be masked with bank_mask before or with the reg_val cache.
