PATCH 3/3 bcm63xx: early registering of gpiochip

This patch makes the gpiochip be registered earlier in the prom code. This allows GPIO-based board detection to be made earlier.

That word order sounds odd ...

It is not necessary to declare a function as __init. But if you do you better include <linux/init.h> first. With this patch you'd rely on init.h having previously included which eventually when the context changes will blow up.

And not last, the patch seems to reject ...
