I had a look at this driver and gpio-regmap.c. I think I understood
what's going on, but I'm not sure how to handle the
gpio_regmap_set_direction case. It is using the same reg_mask_xlate to
determine the register and value to write as gpio_regmap_set or
gpio_regmap_read. The problem is that this PMIC has 1 register per GPIO
for the configuration (GPIOX_CONF registers with a bit for direction),
while the in and out register are used for 8 pins (GPIO_OUT_1,
GPIO_OUT_2 and GPIO_IN_1, GPIO_IN_2). This means that the register and
mask returned by reg_mask_xlate will be erroneous in one or the other
case.

I noticed that I could override reg_mask_xlate, so I should be able to
"just" match on the base address given as argument to perform a
different computation depending on whether we are using reg_mask_xlate in
a "direction change" or not, but somehow this feels a bit wrong.

Is this the correct solution?
Am I missing something?

Thanks again for your time. Best regards,
