platform_get_drvdata will return a gpio_chip *. I agree the address
will be the same, but for correctness you should use the expected
type. Especially since you will not use a member of ath79_gpio_ctrl in
this function anyway.

I suspect this removal pattern to be quite common, maybe we should
just export bgpio_pdev_remove() to allow other drivers to use it
instead of rewriting their own version?
