spi: core and gpio expanders use subsys_init

Browse Source 
Make the SPI external GPIO expander drivers register themselves at
subsys_initcall() time when they're statically linked, and make the SPI
core do its driver model initialization earlier so that's safe.

SOC-integrated GPIOs are available starting very early -- often before
initcalls start to run, or earily in arch_initcall() at latest -- so this
improves consistency, letting more subsystems rely on GPIOs being usable
by their own subsys_initcall() code.
