Hi Linus,

Thanks a lot for your comments.

Sorry for my late reply, I was on vacation.

The last days I have been working to move NPCM pinctrl GPIO to GENERIC
GPIO, most of the work have been done but I had the some issue.

I initialize bgpio as follow:

                        ret = bgpio_init(&pctrl->gpio_bank[id].gc,
                                         pctrl->dev, 4,
                                         pctrl->gpio_bank[id].base +
                                         NPCM7XX_GP_N_DIN,
                                         pctrl->gpio_bank[id].base +
                                         NPCM7XX_GP_N_DOUT,
                                         NULL,
                                         NULL,
                                         pctrl->gpio_bank[id].base +
                                         NPCM7XX_GP_N_IEM,
                                         BGPIOF_READ_OUTPUT_REG_SET);

After doing it, the directions functions I used are:
bgpio_dir_out_inv, bgpio_dir_in_inv, bgpio_get_dir_inv

and the I/O get function is bgpio_get_set

By using inv directions:

direction out = 0 (gc->bgpio_dir &= ~bgpio_line2mask(gc, gpio))

direction in = 1 (gc->bgpio_dir |= bgpio_line2mask(gc, gpio))

The problem occur when reading the GPIO value from bgpio_get_set
function, because the directions value are inverse it reading the
wrong I/O registers

For direction out it reading dat register (instead of set register)

For direction in it calling set register (instead of dat register)

	if (gc->bgpio_dir & pinmask)
		return !!(gc->read_reg(gc->reg_set) & pinmask);
	else
		return !!(gc->read_reg(gc->reg_dat) & pinmask);
the same issue occur at bgpio_get_set_multiple function.

Maybe in bgpio_dir parameter direction out should be in both cases 1
and direction in = 0.

for now i did a local fix in the npcm pinctrl driver by setting
bgpio_dir parameters as direction out = 1 and direction in = 0.

Thanks a lot,

Tomer
