Hi Benjamin,

unfortunately this would not prevent the pulse.
In fact:

a) if gpio is already output
- the first cp2112_gpio_set() will set the value
- then cp2112_gpio_direction_output() would be redundant
- finally the second cp2112_gpio_set() would be redundant too.

b) if gpio is input
- the first cp2112_gpio_set() would be ignored, as explained in AN495
- then cp2112_gpio_direction_output() would put gpio in output.
Accordingly to my experiments the value is set high
- finally the second cp2112_gpio_set() would set the proper value. If
value is different from what is set by cp2112_gpio_direction_output()
we get a pulse.

That's why I removed the first cp2112_gpio_set() or, better, I moved
it after setting gpio direction.

Thanks for the review.
Antonio
