Implement gpio_get_direction() callback for MAX77620 GPIO.
This is useful for debugfs and the userspace ABI.

No. This is a sign that something is wrong, no driver should include
this unless it is using GPIOs as a resource itself.
This is just to use the flag GPIOF_*

As you said below, we can use the 0 and 1, there is no need to include header.
Will post the v2 patch for this.


+ return (val & MAX77620_CNFG_GPIO_DIR_MASK) ?
+ GPIOF_DIR_IN : GPIOF_DIR_OUT;
Just return 0 or 1. The driver-internal API isn't smarter than that.




Thanks,
