Use:
#include <linux/gpio/consumer.h>
instead, and deal with the fallout.

Don't use this.

Why not move this to the struct ts_nbus state container?

It seems to be per-bus not per-system.

Nopes. No singletons please.

Use the state container pattern:

DO not use the legacy GPIO API anywhere.

Reference the device and use gpiod_get() simple, fair and square.

Store struct gpio_desc * pointers in your state container instead.

Do not reinvent the wheel.

Use devm_gpiod_get_array().

And again use devm_gpiod_get(), and gpiod_* accessors.
Applies everywhere.
