Please note that I submitted a patch on 02/07/14 to create this function which was acked by Linus Walleij on 05/07/14.
Great minds think alike, and all that.
However, I think that the version I submitted better replicates the original (non devm) functionality, see below.
I didn't, however, add it to the documentation. +1 on that.

This patch introduces the function devm_request_gpio_array that allocates multiple GPIOs in a single call in a managed manner. The function is also included in the documentation and a declaration is added in include/linux/gpio.h.
