gpio: drop broken to_gpio_irq_chip() helper
PATCH 1/1 gpio: drop broken to_gpio_irq_chip() helper
Drop the broken to_gpio_irq_chip() container_of() helper, which would break the build for anyone who tries to use it.
Specifically, struct gpio_irq_chip only holds a pointer to a struct irq_chip so using container_of() on an irq-chip pointer makes no sense.
