Oh I am so sorry you guys had to see this. This is based on something I found and assumed to be up to
standards and thought of trying to upstream it with modifications to device tree functionality only. Soon
afterwards I realised its shortcomings in the GPIO api department and being too specific and sent a proposal
what's now known as 'gpio-mux-input'. No further efforts should be put into this.

I do not know how to withdraw a patch. Also, maybe I should have used the same thread with v2 instead
of sending a new patch with new title.

Apologies once again,
Mauri
