I had a comment in my original patch:

/**
* Some GPIO pins
* 31-29,23 : reserved (always mask out)
* 28 : Power Button
* 26 : PME#
* 22-16 : LPC
* 14,15 : SMBus
* 9,8 : UART1
* 7 : PCI INTB
* 3,4 : UART2/DDC
* 2 : IDE_IRQ0
* 1 : AC_BEEP
* 0 : PCI INTA
*
* If a mask was not specified, be conservative and only allow:
* 1,2,5,6,10-13,24,25,27
*/

I'll add this in my patch to clear it out.

Thanks.

I mentioned this in an ealier mail too. When I request the GPIO from
userspace the direction file always contains "in", so I thought
this is the standard direction after resetting as I should be in a
defined state after requesting. But I didn't found anything
about this in GPIO lib documentation, so I would be fine to change
this if there is any common default behavoir.

I thought that 32 is in consistency with the datasheet as it always
talks about 32 GPIO pins.
