This patch allows using the CBUS pins of FT-X devices as GPIO in CBUS bitbanging mode. There is no conflict between the GPIO and VCP functionality in this mode. Tested on FT230X and FT231X. As there is no way to request the current CBUS register configuration from the device, all CBUS pins are set to a known state when the first GPIO is requested. This allows using libftdi to set the GPIO pins before loading this module for UART functionality, a behavior that existing applications might be relying upon (though no specific case is known to the authors of this patch).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
