The IOP3xx has some elaborate code to directly slam the GPIO lines multiplexed with I2C down low before enablement, apparently a workaround for a hardware bug found in the early chips. After consulting the developer documentation for IOP80321 and IOP80331 I can clearly see that this may be useful for IOP80321 family (mach-iop32x) but it is highly dubious for any 80331 series or later chip: in these chips the lines are not multiplexed for UARTs. We convert the code to pass optional GPIO descriptors and register these only on the 80321-based boards where it makes sense, optionally obtain them in the driver and use the gpiod_set_raw_value() to ascertain the line gets driven low when needed. The GPIO driver does not give the GPIO chip a reasonable label so the patch also adds that so that these machine descriptor tables can be used.

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.
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.
