Similar issue on Salvator-XS:
sh-pfc e6060000.pinctrl: pin GP_2_0 already requested by 7-0030;
cannot claim for gpiochip9
sh-pfc e6060000.pinctrl: pin-64 (gpiochip9) status -22
sh-pfc e6060000.pinctrl: could not request pin 64 (GP_2_0) from
group intc_ex_irq0 on device sh-pfc
gpio_stub_drv gpiochip9: Error applying setting, reverse things back
gpio_stub_drv: probe of gpiochip9 failed with error -22
