Traditionally, firmware will provide a GPIO interface or a pin control
interface.  However, the SCMI protocol provides a generic pin control
interface and the GPIO support is built on top of that using the normal
pin control interfaces.  Potentially, other firmware will adopt a
similar generic approach in the future.

Document how to configure the GPIO device.

+title: Pin control based generic GPIO controller
+
+description:
+  The pin control-based GPIO will facilitate a pin controller's ability
+  to drive electric lines high/low and other generic properties of a
+  pin controller to perform general-purpose one-bit binary I/O.
