Not yet, but asked for their datasheet and comparing it to the RT5350 
Preliminary datasheet, trying to sort things out like you do!

Yes, LINK0-4 are the 5 link status LED pins, but these can also be used for 
bootstrapping configuration and as standard GPIO #22-26, respectively, see 
table 1-4 in RT5350 datasheet.

Regarding the remainging pins, according to same table:
 - GPIO #17-21 also correspond to the JTAG pins
 - UART_TX and UART_RX are probably GPIO #15-16, respectively
 - GPIO #11-12 are clearly identified as such in the pinout
 - I2SCLK can only be GPIO #7, according to table 1-5
 - SPI_CS1 is GPIO #27, and SP_CLK, SPI_MOSI and SPI_MISO are GPIO #4-6, 
respectively (GPIO #3 is SPI_CS0 and is probably used onboard for selecting the 
SPI Flash chip)
 - I2C_SD and I2C_SCLK are GPIO #1-2, respectively

CPURST_N is probably PORST_N and WLAN_LED is WLAN_LED_N.

This leaves GPIO #0, GPIO #8-10 and GPIO #13-14 to implement TopLink pins 
PWR_LED, SECU_LED, RST_PBC, WPS_LED and WPS_PBC. These can probably be guessed 
by probing using /sys/class/gpio.
