Ok. So if you want to configure the pin as input, you should call zynqmp_pm_bootmode_write
to write a zero into that bit.
But there's only one zynqmp_pm_bootmode_write in the GPIO driver and it's in modepin_gpio_set_value,
which does output, not input. If I understand you right, there should be a modepin_gpio_set_value in
modepin_gpio_dir_in as well?

This is a valid sequence for a GPIO consumer and I don't see how this GPIO driver could
honor it. Could you clarify?
