We currently use gpioset and gpioget that provided by libgpiod to test
aspeed gpio and sgpio drivers.

For the current solution on AST2600,
the valid range of input pins  is 0 ~ 127,
the valid range of output pins is 128 ~ 255.
So we access input pins by the following command

```
gpioget $chipId 0 1 2 3 4 ... 127
```

and access output pins by the following command

```
gpioset $chipId 128=1 129=0 130=1 131=1 ... 255=1

```


The new solution will change the gpio id order as follows
Input:
```
gpioget $chipId 0 2 4 6 8 ... 254

```

Output:

```
gpioset $chipId 1=1 3=0 5=1 7=1 ... 255=1

```

Thanks,
Steven
