Platforms select gpiolib if they use this infrastructure
for all their GPIOs, usually starting with ones integrated
into SOC processors.

Say Y here to add some extra checks and diagnostics to GPIO calls.
The checks help ensure that GPIOs have been properly initialized
before they are used and that sleeping calls aren not made from
nonsleeping contexts. They can make bitbanged serial protocols
slower. The diagnostics help catch the type of setup errors
that are most common when setting up new platforms or boards.

depends on I2C
help
Say yes here to provide access to most "quasi-bidirectional" I2C
GPIO expanders used for additional digital outputs or inputs.
Most of these parts are from NXP, though TI is a second source for
some of them. Compatible models include:
8 bits: pcf8574, pcf8574a, pca8574, pca8574a,
pca9670, pca9672, pca9674, pca9674a
16 bits: pcf8575, pcf8575c, pca8575,
pca9671, pca9673, pca9675
Your board setup code will need to declare the expanders in
use, and assign numbers to the GPIOs they expose. Those GPIOs
can then be used from drivers and other kernel code, just like
other GPIOs, but only accessible from task contexts.
This driver provides an in-kernel interface to those GPIOs using
platform-neutral GPIO calls.
