Add a driver which sets up the pin configuration on x86 devices with an ICH6
(or later) Platform Controller Hub.
The driver is not in the pinctrl uclass due to some oddities of the way x86
devices work:
- The GPIO controller is not present in I/O space until it is set up
- This is done by writing a register in the PCH
- The PCH has a driver which itself uses PCI, another driver
- The pinctrl uclass requires that a pinctrl device be available before any
other device can be probed
It would be possible to work around the limitations by:
- Hard-coding the GPIO address rather than reading it from the PCH
- Using special x86 PCI access to set the GPIO address in the PCH
However it is not clear that this is better, since the pin configuration
driver does not actually provide normal pin configuration services - it
simply sets up all the pins statically when probed. While this remains the
case, it seems better to use a syscon uclass instead. This can be probed
whenever it is needed, without any limitations.
Also add an 'invert' property to support inverting the input.
