I don't think you need to include that prototype here?

Don't you need to compile all the power_seq_*.c too?

Oh, I see the following in power_seq.c:

It's probably better just to compile them separately and link them.

I'd reword the comment to "Copy of the step", and name the field "step".

Ah, I see why you're using #include now.

s/GPL/GPL v2/ given the license header.

Hmm. The INIT_LOW part of that might be somewhat presumptive. I would
suggest simply requesting the GPIO here, and using
gpio_direction_output() in power_seq_step_run_gpio(), thus deferring the
decision of what value to set the GPIO to until a real sequence is
actually run.

That looks out of place.

I think that kerneldoc is stale.

Aside from those minor issues, this all looks reasonable to me, so,
