this patch removes the scx200_gpio's cdev-array & ksalloc,
replacing it with a single static struct cdev, which is sufficient
for all the pins.
cdev_put is commented out since kernel wont link properly with it,
and its apparently not needed.
With these patches, this driver continues to work with Chris Boot's
leds_48xx driver, which is also new in -mm1.
