I think that the modparam handling struggles with embedded commas
inside a single element.

I would suggest:

loadrt hal_gpio config=12or0,1i,23i,...

ie, don't force the format too hard, but work on leading numbers
specify a header number, other code letters (in any order) modify the
behaviour.

Maybe R for reset high and r for reset low?

FWIW a parser like this exists in mux_generic.
https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/master/src/hal/components/mux_generic.c#L105
(note how each successive digit multiples the current number
(initially 0) by 10, and adds the new value, so 1, 01, 001 all mean 1)
