Assembler or linker. IMX_GPIO_NR will be undefined and treated as an
external unless we add this nested include into include/configs/mx6qsabrelite.h:

#ifndef __ASSEMBLY__
#include <asm/arch/gpio.h>
#endif

arch-mx6/gpio.h isn't directly ASM-friendly.

This seems like a lot of #include-foo for giving a name to a constant, don't
you think?
