Add a new driver which allows to split a physical GPIO into multiple virtual GPIOs by using a multiplexer. For now, this doesn't support advanced features like IRQs, just normal IN and OUT functionality of GPIOs. This can help in various usecases. One practical case is the special hardware design of the Realtek-based XS1930-10 switch from Zyxel. It features two SFP+ ports/cages whose signals are wired to directly to the switch SoC. Although Realtek SoCs are short on GPIOs, there are usually enough the fit the SFP signals without any hacks. However, Zyxel did some weird design and connected RX_LOS, MOD_ABS and TX_FAULT of one SFP cage onto a single GPIO line controlled by a multiplexer (the same for the other SFP cage). The single multiplexer controls the lines for both SFP and depending on the state, the designated 'signal GPIO lines' are connected to one of the three SFP signals. Because the SFP core/driver doesn't support multiplexer but needs single GPIOs for each of the signals, this driver fills the gap between both. It registers a gpio_chip, provides multiple virtual GPIOs and sets the backing multiplexer accordingly.
