Since Meson G12A SoC, Introduce new ao registers AO_RTI_PULL_UP_EN_REG
and AO_GPIO_O.

These bits of controlling output level are remapped to the new register
AO_GPIO_O, and the AO_GPIO_O_EN_N support only controlling output enable.

These bits of controlling pull enable are remapped to the new register
AO_RTI_PULL_UP_EN_REG, and the AO_RTI_PULL_UP_REG support only controlling
pull type(up/down).

The new layout of ao gpio/pull registers is as follows:
- AO_GPIO_O_EN_N [offset: 0x9 << 2]
- AO_GPIO_I [offset: 0xa << 2]
- AO_RTI_PULL_UP_REG [offset: 0xb << 2]
- AO_RTI_PULL_UP_EN_REG [offset: 0xc << 2]
- AO_GPIO_O [offset: 0xd << 2]

From above, we can see ao GPIO registers region has been separated by the
ao pull registers. In order to ensure the continuity of the region on
software, the ao GPIO and ao pull registers use the same base address, but
can be identified by the offset.

Doesn't it need an update of the bindings ?

Going even further, shouldn't we stop trying make multiple regions out of
this, and have just one ?

On all the Amlogic SoC we have seen so far, all the regions a very (VERY)
close to each other. It seems very unlikely that there something unrelated to
GPIO in between.

It looks like everything is mostly there in the driver to deal with offset, so
change would be minimal.

Of course, for DT stability we will need to carry the legacy, but for newer
SoC, such as the g12, does it really makes sense to have multiple regions ?

Hi, Jerome
the ee gpio, pull and pull-en register regions are discontinuous, some addresses are reserved between them and maybe used for other module. For example [G12A]:
range of gpio register address offset: (0x010 << 2) - (0x022 << 2)
range of pull register address offset: (0x03a << 2) - (0x03f << 2)
range of pull-en register address offset: (0x048 << 2) - (0x04d << 2)

keeping the multiple register regions seems to be more flexible and friendly for Meson Series SoCs at present.
