Our test team found that the kernel image could not probe the gpio-pca953x 
driver
because the following commit was missing in the branch:


commit 8a64e557f399090f5d1917b2f32a065da2b12be1
Author: Sergei Shtylyov 
Date:   Thu Nov 16 23:18:32 2017 +0300

gpio: pca953x: fix vendor prefix for PCA9654


So, would you backport the commit?

Best regards,
Yoshihiro Shimoda

Thank you!

I subjected this to the same testing I do for each renesas-drivers release.
I have detected no regressions from v4.14.48, only increased functionality.
