Hello Jiří, First of all, please try to use git format-patch when submitting a patch to any kernel mailing list.

The policy is to leave pins in an unknown state till some peripheral need them. What are you trying to use this pin for ? If you just want to use it as a chip select for an spi device, take a look at [1]. Here the gpio is requested by the spi core when defining the cs-gpios property. The gpio controller then request the listed pins to the pin controller (pinctrl driver). You can explicitly define a new pinctrl state (by defining a new pinctrl_spi0_cs0 subnode in your dts file) and reference it in the spi0 node, though this is not mandatory.
