The gpio_chip settings in this driver say the controller can't sleep but it actually uses a mutex for synchronization. This triggers the following BUG():

Is it preferable to mark the gpio chip can_sleep over replacing the mutex with a non-sleep lock?

I'd say let's do this as a fix and convert the driver to non-sleeping with a spinlock next cycle?

Mark the controller as sleeping.

Nit: usually you can strip timestamps from the kernel dump.
Other than that:
