Or actually, I have had some second thought to why gpio_chip
is duplicating struct members from struct device at all.

Why should it even have "owner" and "of_node"?

Should we not just rewrite this code to follow the struct device *dev
pointer in gpio_chip and use "owner" and "of_node" from there?
