PATCH v2 1/1 gpio: Avoid kernel.h inclusion where it's possible

Inclusion of kernel.h increases the mess with the header dependencies. Avoid kernel.h inclusion where it's possible.

Besides that, clean up a bit other inclusions inside GPIO subsystem headers. It includes:
- removal pin control bits (forward declaration and header) from linux/gpio.h
- removal of.h from asm-generic/gpio.h
- use of explicit headers in gpio/consumer.h
- add FIXME note with regard to gpio.h inclusion in of_gpio,h

I don't really think moving the includes inside #ifdef's is an improvment.

But I'll leave it to Linus.

I don't really think moving the includes inside #ifdef's is an improvment.

I also not a big fun, but for now it removes in most cases when CONFIG_GPIOLIB=y. And this is already an improvement. Next step is to replace it with newly created (when it will be created) header might_sleep.h.

Patch applied as clearly the kernel looks better after this patch than before this patch.

Thanks!
