gpiolib: Fix array members of same chip processed separately
New code introduced by commit bf9346f5 ("gpiolib: Identify arrays matching GPIO hardware") forcibly tries to find an array member which has its array index number equal to its hardware pin number and set up an array info for possible fast bitmap processing of all arrray pins belonging to that chip which also satisfy that numbering rule. Depending on array content, it may happen that consecutive array members which belong to the same chip but don't have array indexes equal to their pin hardware numbers will be split into groups, some of them processed together via the fast bitmap path, and rest of them separetely. However, applications may expect all those pins being processed together with a single call to .set_multiple() chip callback, like that was done before the change. Limit applicability of fast bitmap processing path to cases where all pins of consecutive array members starting from 0 which belong to the same chip have their hardware numbers equal to their corresponding array indexes. That should still speed up processing of applications using whole GPIO banks as I/O ports, while not breaking simultaneous manipulation of consecutive pins of the same chip which don't follow the equal numbering rule.
