PATCH 1/1 gpio: mxc: Shift generic request/free after gpiochip registration

generic gpio request/free should be added after gpiocip registration to validate mapping of gpiochip with pinctrl subsystem.

gpiochip->pin_ranges list contains the information used by pinctrl subsystem to configure corresponding pins for gpio usage. This list will be empty if gpiochip fails to map with pinctrl subsystem for any reason.
For Ex.:-
generic gpio request/free should not be used if IOMUX pin controller device node is disabled in device tree.

This commit checks above list and skips adding generic gpio request/free if list is found empty.

This commit checks above list and skips adding generic gpio request/free if list is found empty.

Could you:

- Rebase on my fixes or devel branch in the GPIO tree. This doesn't seem to apply cleany on any of my branches, have you tested v4.9-rc2?

- Indicate if this is a regression that need to go into fixes/stable or not?
