performance issues.
* Access to the GPIO bus is already locked by requesting
and releasing the bus - thus the lock isn't really needed
for each GPIO pin change.
* Don't lock and unlock the GPIO bus for -each- i2c access -
the i2c bus code is already doing this by calling the upper
layer callback to request/release the bus. This thus locks
the bus for the entirety of the transaction.
TODO:
* Further verify that everything is correctly requesting/
releasing the GPIO bus.
* Look at how to lock the GPIO pin configuration stuff,
potentially by locking/unlocking the bus at the gpiobus
layer.
pins, rather than defaulting to 0 and 1.
This way the pin order can be reversed. It is reversed with the
TP-Link TL-WR1043nd.

one. Interestingly, these are actually the default for quite some time
(bus_generic_driver_added(9) since r52045 and bus_generic_print_child(9)
since r52045) but even recently added device drivers do this unnecessarily.

to kern/subr_bus.c. Simplify this function so that it no longer
depends on malloc() to execute. Identify a few other places where
it makes sense to use device_delete_all_children().

It seems the D_PSEUDO flag was meant to allow make_dev() to return NULL.
Nowadays we have a different interface for that; make_dev_p(). There's
no need to keep it there.
While there, remove an unneeded D_NEEDMINOR from the gpio driver.

The external gpio pins are connected to a PLD on the i2c bus, unfortunatley
this device does not conform by failing to send an ack after each byte written.
The iicbb driver will abort the transfer when the address is not ack'd and it
would introduce a lot of churn to be able to pass a flag down to
iicbb_start/iicbb_write. Instead we do bad things by grabbing the iicbus but
then doing our own bit banging.
