The board that is failing to boot with this patch-set is not an OMAP1
based board but the Sitara AM335x Starter Kit
(arch/arm/boot/dts/am335x-evmsk.dts).

Now, other boards using the same SoC like the Beagle Bone Black are
booting correctly and also am335x-evm which is very similar to
am335x-evmsk.dts.

Nishanth has access to this board and his helping now with the debugging.

Yeah, I'm doing my best to keep this driver up-to-date with the latest
changes in gpiolib but it seems that is very hard to change the OMAP
GPIO driver without breaking one of the gazillion TI platforms out
there...

Thanks a lot and best regards,
