4.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Nicolas Schichan <[email protected]> Commit 2ec459f2a77b808c1e5a3616c88b613d3f720c8d upstream. When called from prom init code, bcm63xx_gpio_init() will fail as it will call gpiochip_add() which relies on a working kmalloc() to alloc the gpio_desc array and kmalloc is not useable yet at prom init time. Move bcm63xx_gpio_init() to bcm63xx_register_devices() (an arch_initcall) where kmalloc works.
