TI's pcf8575 is a 16-bit I2C based GPIO expander.The device features a 16-bit quasi-bidirectional I/O ports. Each quasi-bidirectional I/O can be used as an input or output without the use of a data-direction control signal. The I/Os should be high before being used as inputs.
This driver is based on pcf857x driver available in Linux 4.0 kernel. It supports basic reading and writing of gpio pins.

And right up front, this driver isn't using device model, please re-work and update to use that framework, thanks!
Thanks for reviewing.
I can switch to device model, but DRA72 does not support device tree and hence I will not be able use device model based pcf driver in my use-case.
Starting the move to DT is very easy, I would swear. For example, am335x_boneblack_vboot switches am335x over to DM and includes a device tree, but it's only used for the verified boot part now.
