Hm I don't quite get it... sorry. Maybe if you show your fix and what
you expect to happen I can understand better?

Do you mean that because you write the inverse value to
IEM this happens, and the BGPIO code assumes that
you always write 1 to set a line as input and 0 to set it
as output?

I would say if this causes the problem we should just add
a new BGPIOF_INVERTED_REG_DIR with comment in
include/linux/gpio/driver.h and make the necessary fix to
respect this flag in the gpio-mmio.c core so it works right.

If you do this as a separate patch I would be grateful :)

Yours,
Linus Walleij
