I didn't really find the description coherent. I simplified it to:

    ARM: davinci: da8xx: support gpio platform device

    DaVinci GPIO driver now uses platform device model.
    Convert DA8XX SoC code to use the new model.

    - Add Memory and IRQ resources for da8xx
    - Add da8xx_register_gpio API to create platform device for da8xx
      platforms.
