Update and bugfix the patch adding sysfs GPIO support:

  * Bugfix:  the test initializing the IS_OUT flag for output-only
    GPIOs had the sense inverted.

  * Update:  when gpio_chip.dev is provided, list it in the debugfs
    dump.  Device nodes are unique; the "label" isn't.

The bug of course caused output-only GPIOs to misbehave, but it also
made just-exported (or generally:  only-requested) GPIOs always appear
to be outputs in sysfs and debugfs.  That's wrong more often than it's
right, although it gets corrected when the direction is assigned.
