Some newer Intel SoCs, like Braswell already have more than 256 GPIOs available so the default limit is exceeded. Instead of adding more architecture specific gpio.h files with custom ARCH_NR_GPIOs we increase the gpiolib default limit to be twice the current. Current generic ARCH_NR_GPIOS limit is 256 which starts to be too small for newer Intel SoCs like Braswell. In order to support GPIO controllers on these SoCs we increase ARCH_NR_GPIOS to be 512 which should be sufficient for now. The kernel size increases a bit with this change. Below is an example of x86_64 kernel image. ARCH_NR_GPIOS=256 text data bss dec hex filename 11476173 1971328 1265664 14713165 e0814d vmlinux ARCH_NR_GPIOS=512 text data bss dec hex filename 11476173 1971328 1269760 14717261 e0914d vmlinux So the BSS size and this the kernel image size increases by 4k.
