For this patch:

Tested-by: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil-cisco@xs4all.nl>

However, I discovered that patch 256efaea1fdc ("gpiolib: fix up emulated
open drain outputs") broke the cec-gpio driver on the Raspberry Pi starting
with kernel v5.5.

The CEC pin is an open drain pin that is used in both input and output
directions and has an interrupt (which is of course disabled while in
output mode).

With this patch the interrupt can no longer be requested:

[    4.157806] gpio gpiochip0: (pinctrl-bcm2835): gpiochip_lock_as_irq: tried to flag a GPIO set as output for IRQ

[    4.168086] gpio gpiochip0: (pinctrl-bcm2835): unable to lock HW IRQ 7 for IRQ
[    4.175425] genirq: Failed to request resources for cec-gpio@7 (irq 79) on irqchip pinctrl-bcm2835
[    4.184597] cec-gpio: probe of cec-gpio@7 failed with error -5

You can easily test this with a RPi by enabling cec-gpio:

Reverting that patch makes it work again.

I'm happy to test a fix for this.
