This is very interesting.

So if a hardware has *real* open drain, i.e. a bit in hardware that says
"set me in open drain mode" we should manage this in gpiolib
and provide a special callback in the vtable for it, right? Because it
is certainly better to do this with hardware, if we can.

I'll send a draft patch and we can see if this is what you want.
