[PATCH v1] gpio: mpfs: fix setting gpio direction to output

From: Conor Dooley
Date: Thu Sep 25 2025 - 11:41:36 EST


From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

mpfs_gpio_direction_output() actually sets the line to input mode.
Use the correct register settings for output mode so that this function
actually works as intended.

This was a copy-paste mistake made when converting to regmap during the
driver submission process. It went unnoticed because my test for output
mode is toggling LEDs on an Icicle kit which functions with the
incorrect code. The internal reporter has yet to test the patch, but on
their system the incorrect setting may be the reason for failures to
drive the GPIO lines on the BeagleV-fire board.
