Hi all! I included a few people who have committed previously to related files this set also touches. I hope I am not bothering anyone. This patch set is otherwise identical to the initial sending but the kernel 5.4 related patch was dropped.
Currently, Buffalo wzr-hp-g300nh uses a driver that is developed specificly for NXP 74HC153 dual 4-way multiplexer and it sits in OpenWRT source tree. The multiplexer is being used for several different buttons on the device casing. This patch set replaces that driver with a generic gpio-cascade driver that is in the process of being upstreamed. All comments are welcome but I would need someone to have a look at the AUTOLOAD clauses in the kernel package makefiles. The way they are specified currently allows loading modules early enough for using the reset key for entering the failsafe. Nevertheless, it's a copypaste without much understanding what goes where and there could be room for improvements.
