Mh, I'm not sure I'm understanding the datasheet/registers. _DOUT_CFG
and _DOEN_CFG seem to specify the pad where this GPIO is mapped to.
Shouldn't this be some kind of pinctrl then? Apparently you can map
any GPIO number to any output pad, no? Or at least to all pads
which are described in Table 11-2. What happens if two different GPIOs
are mapped to the same pad? Bit 31 in these _CFG seems to be an invert
bit, but what does it invert?

Similar, the input GPIOs are connected to an output pad by all the
GPI_*_CFG registers.

To me it seems, that there two multiplexers for each GPIO, where
you can connect any GPIOn to any input pad and output pad. Sound
like a huge overkill. I must be missing something here.

But what puzzles me the most, where do I set the actual GPIO output
value?

I'm also not opposed to add a new flag to gpio-regmap which
invert the value itself.

But the idea was that you can differentiate in _xlate() by the
base register offset, like you already did:

static int gpio_regmap_starfive_xlate(struct gpio_regmap *gpio,
				      unsigned int base, unsigned int offset,
				      unsigned int *reg, unsigned int *mask)
{
	switch (base) {
	case GPIO0_DOUT_CFG:
		/* do some custom mapping just for DOUT_CFG */
	case GPIO0_DOEN_CFG:
		/* do some custom mapping just for DOEN_CFG */
	default:
		/* do normal mapping */
}

> Are there any other examples of regmap xlate that I missed?

No there aren't much yet. Usually the simple one is enough.
