Basically this looks very good, but:

Isn't the newstyle way of doing this something like:

if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF_GPIO))
  tc3589x_gpio->chip.of_node = np;

I'm a bit uncertain about this since I never quite used
it myself, test it with OF disabled and see if it works.

This construct also accepts modules using OF, see
include/linux/kconfig.h, somebody might be using this as
a module.
