From 1929780cf2cc997f990085bd878112b28f4175c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Elwell Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2018 14:42:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] gpiolib: Don't prevent IRQ usage of output GPIOs Upstream Linux deems using output GPIOs to generate IRQs as a bogus use case, even though the BCM2835 GPIO controller is capable of doing so. A number of users would like to make use of this facility, so disable the checks.
