Patch applied.

Since putting a pin into GPIO mode start poking around in essentially pin
control registers, we may need to revisit the issue of the pin control subsystem
not denying simultaneous use of a pin for a device muxing and GPIO.
Maybe the "strict" setting forcing a pin to be either one or the other on
a per-driver basis would enforce a better policy on this driver (and some
others).
