Here's the current version of this patch ... updated to put the
driver into drivers/gpio (separate patch setting that up) and
the header into <linux/i2c/pcf857x.h>
Note that after looking at the GPIO expanders listed at the NXP
website, I updated this to accept a few more of these chips.
Other than reset pins and addressing options, the key difference
between these seems to be the top I2C clock speed supported:
pcf857x ... 100 KHz
pca857x ... 400 KHz
pca967x ... 1000 KHz
Otherwise they're equivalent at the level of just swapping parts.

============= SNIP!
This is a new-style I2C driver for most common 8 and 16 bit I2C based
"quasi-bidirectional" GPIO expanders: pcf8574 or pcf8575, and several
compatible models (mostly faster, supporting I2C at up to 1 MHz).
Since it's a new-style driver, these devices must be configured as
part of board-specific init. That eliminates the need for error-prone
manual configuration of module parameters, and makes compatibility
with legacy drivers (pcf8574.c, pc8575.c)for these chips easier.
The driver exposes the GPIO signals using the platform-neutral GPIO
programming interface, so they are easily accessed by other kernel
code. The lack of such a flexible kernel API is what has ensured
the proliferation of board-specific drivers for these chips... stuff
that rarely makes it upstream since it's so ugly. This driver will
let them use standard calls.

+ GPIO expanders used for additional digital outputs or inputs.
+ Most of these parts are from NXP, though TI is a second source for
+ some of them. Compatible models include:
+
+ 8 bits: pcf8574, pcf8574a, pca8574, pca8574a,
+ pca9670, pca9672, pca9674, pca9674a
+
+ 16 bits: pcf8575, pcf8575c, pca8575,
+ pca9671, pca9673, pca9675
+
+ Your board setup code will need to declare the expanders in
+ use, and assign numbers to the GPIOs they expose. Those GPIOs
+ can then be used from drivers and other kernel code, just like
+ other GPIOs, but only accessible from task contexts.
+
+ This driver provides an in-kernel interface to those GPIOs using
+ platform-neutral GPIO calls.
