I think that it is right because i want to use gpio141 pin as output,

Of course, it will be better if the name is clear as AE6_34XX_GPIO141_OUT.
but, the core of this problem is not it, the chip->get() called in
gpiolib_dbg_show()
of drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c or dbg_gpio_show() of arch/arm/plat-omap/gpio.c
can return the wrong value when gpio pin is configured as an output.

the reason as i say at former email, is because __omap_get_gpio_datain()
called by gpio_get() of arch/arm/plat-omap/gpio.c reports only value of
OMAP24XX_GPIO_DATAIN register.
