I'll have to take some time to convince myself of the impact of this 
one.

I'm wondering whether we're better off adding some explicit support in 
the generic aspeed pinctrl code. The behaviour is essentially allowing 
the GPIO controller to snoop the pin state of other mux configurations.

Again, thanks for surfacing this patch.
