To me looks like chip->dev is NULL. My understanding is that the GPIO core
wants to have it non-NULL.

Can you try if following patch helps?

diff --git a/drivers/ssb/driver_gpio.c b/drivers/ssb/driver_gpio.c
index ba350d2035c0..3cbf74a47851 100644

 	/* There is just one SoC in one device and its GPIO addresses should be
