But I don't agree with you.

As I known, in mainline the other SoC vendors provide such function, configure the gpio mode with output config by pinctrl.

For example, ST. nomadisk.
You can see it in the function: nmk_pin_config_set() of the file, pinctrl-nomadik.c.
It provides GPIO mode and OUTPUT config.

This is a good solution, as what said in Documentation/pinctrl.txt,

it is perfectly possible to push a pin into "GPIO mode" and drive the line low as part of the usual pin control map.
