    HID: mcp2200: added driver for GPIOs of MCP2200 · 740329d7
    Johannes Roith authored
    Added a gpiochip compatible driver to control the 8 GPIOs of
    the MCP2200 by using the HID interface.
    
    Using GPIOs with alternative functions (GP0<->SSPND, GP1<->USBCFG,
    GP6<->RXLED, GP7<->TXLED) will reset the functions, if set (unset by
    default).
    
    The driver was tested while also using the UART of the chip. Setting
    and reading the GPIOs has no effect on the UART communication. However,
    a reset is triggered after the CONFIGURE command. If the GPIO Direction
    is constantly changed, this will affect the communication at low baud
    rates. This is a hardware problem of the MCP2200 and is not caused by
    the driver.
