Ok I felt these changes affect the behavior of the pinctrl

  * @PIN_CONFIG_BIAS_DISABLE: disable any pin bias on the pin, a
 *  transition from say pull-up to pull-down implies that you disable
 *  pull-up in the process, this setting disables all biasing.

I mapped this is linked in pinctrl driver, pwm_ao_d_10_pins GPIOAO_10 see below

For testing, I tried to libgpio command to verify shown below, with
this patch applied.

If I am wrong I have previously sent it with a typo correction below.
