gpio: Remove VLA from gpiolib The new challenge is to remove VLAs from the kernel (see https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/7/621) to eventually turn on -Wvla. Using a kmalloc array is the easy way to fix this but kmalloc is still more expensive than stack allocation. Introduce a fast path with a fixed size stack array to cover most chip with gpios below some fixed amount. The slow path dynamically allocates an array to cover those chips with a large number of gpios.
