I would assume a driver with a .set_config() responding to this flag?

I actually think some gpio drivers using pin control as back-end
such as
drivers/pinctrl/bcm/pinctrl-bcm2835.c
will do this out-of-the box after this patch but I may be wrong.

To me supporting this on the Rpi driver is a good enough demonstrator
of the usefulness.
