There was no point in permanently allocating the buffers since their
lifetime was function scoped and thus they could be converted to
stack variables.

Let the compiler decide what to inline

The slave_busy status doesn't need to persist, so just use a stack variable
instead.

The work queue would have been leaked in the case where the GPIO request failed
because the error handling cases were in the wrong order.

 - Wrap lines at 80 chars
 - Format else statements according to linux coding style

stopped.

GPIO requests were passing pointers to stack allocated strings under the
assumption that the label string contents would be copied to another
storage location during the request.  This assumption was incorrect.
The string pointer is just copied, so the pointer becomes unsafe to
follow once the requesting function returns or re-uses the string.

The chip isn't capable of reporting this value.

This change resolves a problem reported on the mangOH forum
(http://forum.mangoh.io/t/controlling-wp-gpio-1-gpio22-problem/984)
where GPIO 22 could not be exported to userspace because it was
incorrectly registered as an interrupt in the bq24296 kernel module.
