OF-based GPIO controller drivers may provide a translation function that
calculates the real chip offset from whatever devicetree sources
provide. We need to take this into account in the shared GPIO management
and call of_xlate() if it's provided and adjust the entry->offset we
initially set when scanning the tree.

To that end: modify the shared GPIO API to take the GPIO chip as
argument on setup (to avoid having to rcu_dereference() it from the GPIO
device) and protect the access to entry->offset with the existing lock.

Do we need something similar to this in the gpio_device_teardown_shared function?
