Subject: net: rfkill: gpio: set GPIO direction
From: Rouven Czerwinski <r.czerwinski@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 23484d817082c3005252d8edfc8292c8a1006b5b upstream.
Fix the undefined usage of the GPIO consumer API after retrieving the
GPIO description with GPIO_ASIS. The API documentation mentions that
GPIO_ASIS won't set a GPIO direction and requires the user to set a
direction before using the GPIO.
This can be confirmed on i.MX6 hardware, where rfkill-gpio is no longer
able to enabled/disable a device, presumably because the GPIO controller
was never configured for the output direction.
