I prefer that you call the second thing "line_index" rather than
"pin_index". Not all GPIOs in the world are tied to physical pins.
Also it is easy to confuse stuff with the pin control terminology
if it's called "pin".

And "pin" is mentioned several times in the commit message.
I prefer that we talk about "lines".
