gpiolib: add drivers/gpio directory

Add an empty drivers/gpio directory for gpiolib infrastructure and GPIO
expanders.  It will be populated by later patches.

This won't be the only place to hold such gpio_chip code.  Many external chips
add a few GPIOs as secondary functionality (such as MFD drivers) and platform
code frequently needs to closely integrate GPIO and IRQ support.

This is placed *early* in the build/link sequence since it's common for other
drivers to depend on GPIOs to do their work, so they must be initialized early
in the device_initcall() sequence.

Platforms select gpiolib if they use this infrastructure
for all their GPIOs, usually starting with ones integrated
into SOC processors.

help
Say Y here to add some extra checks and diagnostics to GPIO calls.
The checks help ensure that GPIOs have been properly initialized
before they are used and that sleeping calls aren not made from
nonsleeping contexts. They can make bitbanged serial protocols
slower. The diagnostics help catch the type of setup errors
that are most common when setting up new platforms or boards.
